Ingredients 

  • 12 large eggs
  • 1 cup milk
  • 1 teaspoon garlic finely chopped
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 2 cups shredded Sharp Cheddar or Pepper Jack cheese
  • 1 red pepper chopped
  • 2 cups kale chopped
  • 1 cup crumbled cooked breakfast sausage
  • 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
  • sliced green onions for garnish

Instructions

  • In a large bowl, whisk together eggs and milk; stir in garlic, salt, and cheese.
  • Add chopped pepper, kale, and sausage to the baking dish, spreading evenly. Pour egg mixture on top, gently stirring mixture to distribute. Cover and refrigerate about 8 hours or overnight.
  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  • Uncover the refrigerated casserole; bake 35 to 40 minutes or until just set and a knife inserted near center comes out clean. Let stand 10 minutes before serving. Sprinkle with fresh parsley and sliced green onions for garnish.
  • To make this dish the same day, adjust the bake time to 30 to 35 minutes and check for doneness.

Notes

Use your favorite sausage in this recipe. I like to use bulk sausage rather than link sausage. However, while I’ve not used this product, it did catch my attention. I noticed that Jimmy Dean has fully cooked Sausage Crumbles in Original and Turkey Sausage varieties, making this recipe easy to throw together in very little time.
