Old-Fashioned Fireman’s Breakfast Casserole

Running out of breakfast recipes? Here’s a very easy and delicious old-fashioned fireman’s casserole recipe by Collard Valley Cooks. It consists of eggs, sausages, cheese, and mushrooms. What I love most about this dish is that it’s both creamy and savory. So, if you are tired of your usual egg recipe every morning, definitely give this a try.

Ingredients:

• 12 eggs
• 1 cup of heavy cream or half and half (you can also use whole milk)
• 1 lb of pork breakfast sausage
• 16 oz of shredded cheddar cheese
• 1 small can of mushrooms (optional)
• 1/2 large onion (chopped)
• 1 green pepper (chopped)
• salt and pepper
• 2 tablespoons of margarine or butter

Note: half and half consist of an equal amount of heavy whipping cream and whole milk

Instructions:

Step 1:

Grease a 9×13″ pan with cooking spray. Crack the eggs into the pan and poke each yolk with your fork or lightly scramble them.

Step 2:

Pour 1 cup of heavy cream over the eggs, then sprinkle half of the grated cheddar cheese on top.

Step 3:

Place a pan over heat and add a little bit of oil. Add the sausage and cook until browned. Break it into pieces using your spatula. Add 2 tablespoons of butter or margarine, followed by the chopped onion, mushrooms, and chopped green pepper. Mix and let them cook for a few minutes until softened.

Step 4:

Once the sausage is cooked, transfer them to the pan and spread evenly.

Step 5:

Season it with some salt and pepper. Take note that cheese is a little bit salty, so you don’t have to add it if you don’t want to.

Step 6:

Add the remaining cheese on top. Make sure to spread it well.

Step 7:

Place the pan inside the oven and bake at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for about 45 to 60 minutes until it becomes browned and bubbly.

Step 8:

Remove it from the oven and let it cool for a while. Slice, serve, and enjoy!
