Swaggerty’s Farm Overnight Breakfast Casserole
directions
Prepare Sausage Mixture
Brown Swaggerty’s Farm sausage in a skillet over medium heat. Drain excess grease. Add onion and red pepper; cook 5–6 minutes until softened and lightly browned. Season with granulated garlic, salt, and pepper. Set aside.
Assemble Casserole
Lightly grease a small casserole dish (8×8 or similar). Arrange bread evenly in the dish. Distribute sausage mixture over bread.
Prepare Custard
Whisk eggs and half-and-half together. Lightly season with salt and pepper.
Build
Pour custard evenly over bread and sausage. Press gently to ensure full absorption. Sprinkle with parsley and top with shredded cheddar.
Rest (Recommended)
Cover and refrigerate overnight (or at least 60 minutes) for the best texture.
Bake
Preheat oven to 325°F. Bake uncovered for 25–30 minutes, until eggs are set but still tender.
