1/2 teaspoon salt

Buy IngredientsPowered by Chicory
Directions
Preheat oven to 375°. In a large skillet, cook sausage over medium heat 6-8 minutes or until no longer pink, breaking into crumbles; drain. Unroll crescent roll dough into a greased 13x9-in. baking dish. Seal seams and perforations. Sprinkle with sausage and cheese.
In a large bowl, whisk eggs, milk, salt and pepper. Pour over sausage and cheese.
Bake, uncovered, 35-40 minutes or until a knife inserted in the center comes out clean. Let stand 5-10 minutes before serving.
Make-Ahead: Refrigerate unbaked casserole, covered, several hours or overnight. To use, preheat oven to 375°. Remove casserole from refrigerator while oven heats. Bake as directed, increasing time as necessary until a knife inserted in the center comes out clean. Let stand 5-10 minutes before serving.
Test Kitchen TipsUse spicy or mild Italian sausage in the recipe for a flavor twist. It’s usually cheaper to buy cheese in blocks rather than already shredded. So I purchase large quantities of cheddar, Monterey Jack and mozzarella, then use my food processor to shred it myself. I store the shredded cheese in the freezer so I have it when I need it. Here are 60 hearty breakfast casserole recipes for breakfast tomorrow!

Ingredients

2 slices sourdough bread
1 tablespoon vanilla Greek yogurt
1 large egg
1 slice cheddar cheese
2 cooked bacon strips
Buy IngredientsPowered by Chicory
Directions
Using a biscuit cutter or round cookie cutter, cut out center of 1 slice of bread (discard center or save for another use). Spread mayonnaise on 1 side of bread slices. In a large skillet coated with cooking spray, lightly toast cutout slice, mayonnaise side down, over medium-low heat. Flip slice; crack an egg into center. Add remaining bread slice mayonnaise side down, to skillet; layer with cheese and bacon.
Cook, covered, until egg white is set, yolk is soft-set and cheese begins to melt. If needed, flip slice with egg to finish cooking. To assemble sandwich, use solid slice as bottom and cutout slice as top.
Test Kitchen tipsNothing perks up a grilled cheese sandwich more than a slice of fresh tomato. Go ahead and add it just after the cheese melts but before you assemble the sandwich. Mayo may seem like a strange ingredient to spread on the outside of the bread, but when it's grilled, it melts quickly and creates a beautiful golden brown color.

Biscuits and Sausage Gravy Tips What can I add to sausage gravy? To add more flavor to your gravy, consider stirring in some fresh herbs like chopped thyme or parsley (learn how to grow fresh herbs!).How can I thicken gravy without flour? Cornstarch and arrowroot are gluten-free thickening agents you can try. They’ll also keep your sauce clear and cloud-free. You’ll need about 1 tablespoon for every cup of liquid in the recipe. To use, mix the agent with equal parts water to create a slurry and pour it into the pot. Whisk continuously over high heat until the agent is well incorporated and the sauce starts to thicken.Can I reheat sausage gravy? Yes, you can reheat sausage gravy. The trick to reheating gravy is to start it at a low temperature, and then whisk vigorously once it comes to a boil to mix the ingredients back together.Can I make this recipe without milk? You can make this breakfast recipe without milk. Try substituting the whole milk with heavy cream or skim milk. Do keep in mind that using a milk alternative may thin out your gravy.
