How to Make Breakfast Casserole Italian Style

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. In a large skillet over medium heat, cook 1 lb Italian sausage (removed from casings), 1 medium onion (chopped), 1 green bell pepper (chopped), and 2 cloves garlic (minced) until browned, about 8-10 minutes. Drain excess grease.
  3. Add 2 cups chopped tomatoes (canned or fresh), 1 cup cubed potatoes (cooked), and 1 teaspoon dried oregano. Cook for another 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  4. In a large bowl, whisk together 6 large eggs, 1 cup milk, 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper.
  5. Pour the egg mixture over the sausage and vegetable mixture in the skillet. Stir to combine.
  6. Grease a 9x13 inch baking dish.
  7. Pour the egg and sausage mixture into the prepared baking dish.
  8. Sprinkle 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese over the top.
  9. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the casserole is set and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
