Feel free to get creative and tailor the casserole to suit your taste and dietary needs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Customize with Your Favorites:<\/strong> Feel free to add your favorite ingredients to the casserole. Bell peppers, onions, mushrooms, spinach, and diced tomatoes are all excellent additions that can add color, flavor, and nutrition.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Use the Right Bread:<\/strong> While this recipe calls for sandwich bread, you can also use other types of bread like French bread, sourdough, or whole wheat bread. Choose a bread that you enjoy, but keep in mind that some types may require different soaking times to achieve the desired texture.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Variety of Sausage:<\/strong> You can use different types of sausage, such as pork, turkey, or chicken sausage. Each type will bring its own unique flavor to the casserole.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Cheese Choices:<\/strong> Experiment with different cheeses. Besides cheddar, you can use Monterey Jack, Swiss, mozzarella, or a cheese blend for a varied taste.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Seasoning Options:<\/strong> Don't hesitate to get creative with seasonings. Add herbs like thyme, oregano, or basil for extra flavor. You can also experiment with spices like smoked paprika or red pepper flakes for some heat.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Make it Vegetarian:<\/strong> If you prefer a vegetarian version, omit the sausage and add more vegetables or a plant-based sausage substitute.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Plan for Toppings:<\/strong> Consider toppings like salsa, sour cream, or hot sauce to serve with the casserole for added flavor and customization.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>If you didn't think of whipping this up the night before, a great morning-of breakfast is this <a href=\"https:\/\/feedingyourfam.com\/breakfast-pizza\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Breakfast Pizza<\/a>! It has a crescent roll crust topped with all your breakfast favorites!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_to_serve_with_Christmas_Breakfast_Casserole\"><\/span>What to serve with Christmas Breakfast Casserole<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Besides being delicious, the next best thing about this overnight sausage and egg casserole is the ease it gives for breakfast prep. I like to keep it simple by serving it with a couple options. Here are my go-to sides:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>A toaster with an array of baked goods like toast, bagels, or English muffins along with cream cheese spreads, butter, and\/or jam<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Cinnamon rolls, danishes, or monkey bread. These light and crispy <a href=\"https:\/\/www.savoryexperiments.com\/air-fryer-donuts\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Air Fryer Donuts<\/a> are also an excellent choice!<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Fresh fruit bowl <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Plain oatmeal with a variety of topping options<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Yogurt with a variety of toppings options<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Lightly dressed green salad<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Storage_and_Freezing\"><\/span>Storage and Freezing<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>You can assemble this casserole, cover it tightly, and freeze it for up to three months. Thaw it in the refrigerator overnight before baking.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Once it's prepared, if you have leftovers, allow the casserole to cool completely to room temperature after baking. Cover tightly with plastic wrap, foil, or in an airtight container. Store in the refrigerator for 3-4 days.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you want to freeze the baked casserole for longer storage, it can be stored in a freezer-safe container up to 3 months.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When you're ready to reheat a serving from the refrigerator, simply place it in the microwave for a minute or two until heated through. To reheat a slice from the freezer, thaw overnight in the refrigerator then reheat in the microwave or in a covered skillet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"FAQs\"><\/span>FAQs<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"schema-faq wp-block-yoast-faq-block\"><div class=\"schema-faq-section\" id=\"faq-question-1695648512903\"><strong class=\"schema-faq-question\">Why does the casserole need to refrigerate overnight?<\/strong> <p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">Refrigerating the sausage and egg breakfast casserole is an essential step in ensuring that the flavors meld together, the bread fully absorbs the liquid, and the dish bakes to perfection. It's a time-saving, flavor-enhancing technique that makes breakfast preparation a breeze.<\/p> <\/div> <div class=\"schema-faq-section\" id=\"faq-question-1695650784245\"><strong class=\"schema-faq-question\">How can I make this egg and sausage casserole dairy free?<\/strong> <p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">If you're lactose intolerant or following a dairy-free diet, replace the milk and cheese with dairy-free alternatives like almond milk and dairy-free cheese.<\/p> <\/div> <div class=\"schema-faq-section\" id=\"faq-question-1695650861419\"><strong class=\"schema-faq-question\">Can I make this egg and sausage casserole gluten-free?<\/strong> <p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">Use gluten-free bread to make the casserole suitable for those with gluten sensitivities or celiac disease.<\/p> <\/div> <div class=\"schema-faq-section\" id=\"faq-question-1695651679204\"><strong class=\"schema-faq-question\"><strong>Can I use other types of meat besides sausage?<\/strong><\/strong> <p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">Absolutely! You can use bacon, ham, or even diced cooked chicken as a meat alternative in this casserole.<\/p> <\/div> <div class=\"schema-faq-section\" id=\"faq-question-1695651717405\"><strong class=\"schema-faq-question\"><strong>How can I make this overnight breakfast casserole more nutrient dense?<\/strong><\/strong> <p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">To make the casserole healthier, use turkey sausage or leaner meats, reduced-fat cheese, and whole-grain bread. You can also increase the ratio of vegetables to meat.<\/p> <\/div> <div class=\"schema-faq-section\" id=\"faq-question-1695651766854\"><strong class=\"schema-faq-question\"><strong>How long should I bake the casserole if it's straight from the refrigerator?<\/strong><\/strong> <p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">While it's best to pull the casserole from the refrigerator at least 15-20 minutes prior to baking, you can directly bake it from the refrigerator. Add a few extra minutes to the baking time to ensure it cooks through completely.<\/p> <\/div> <div class=\"schema-faq-section\" id=\"faq-question-1695651888957\"><strong class=\"schema-faq-question\"><strong>Can I prepare this casserole without refrigerating it overnight?<\/strong><\/strong> <p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">While refrigerating it overnight is recommended for the best flavor and texture, you can prepare it and bake it immediately. Keep in mind that the texture and taste may not be as well-developed as when it's allowed to rest overnight.<\/p> <\/div> <div class=\"schema-faq-section\" id=\"faq-question-1695651925351\"><strong class=\"schema-faq-question\"><strong>Can I use pre-cooked sausage or bacon?<\/strong><\/strong> <p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">Yes, you can use pre-cooked sausage or bacon to save time. Simply crumble or chop it and add it to the casserole.<\/p> <\/div> <\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Try_these_other_Breakfast_Recipes\"><\/span>Try
