This Easy Cheese Breakfast Casserole is a family favorite. It’s super easy to make, very similar to a quiche but with less eggs and reheats very well. .
Easy Cheesy Breakfast Casserole Ingredients needed:
pork breakfast sausage
green bell pepper
green chili
Pimentos
all purpose flour
cottage cheese
salt and pepper
egg
butter
shredded cheddar cheese
This dish has simple ingredients and is perfect for breakfast or brunch. Many people will say, “I don’t like cottage cheese, can I use something else?” I’ve never tasted it in an actual baking recipe. The cheese melts like any other cheese. We topped this with sour cream and everyone loved it.
There are some modifications that can be made to this dish.
- use turkey sausage in light dishes
- Lighten up with smoked sausage or smoked turkey sausage
- Cottage cheese is a great source of protein, so if you’re looking for a higher-protein breakfast, switching the sausage to turkey sausage and staying with cottage cheese will give you a much higher-protein option.
- Replace sour cream with low-calorie, high-protein Greek yogurt
- Use Shredded Cheese Your Family Enjoys
This dish can be reheated, so you can make it on Sunday and enjoy it several times in the morning. I made this in a pie plate and it worked!
