Ingredients for Individual Sausage And Egg Casseroles
- Italian Sausage
- 1/2 cup chopped onion

How to Make Individual Sausage And Egg Casseroles
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- In a large skillet, brown 1 pound of sausage over medium heat, breaking it up with a spoon. Drain off any excess grease.
- Add 1/2 cup chopped onion and 1/2 cup chopped bell pepper to the skillet. Cook until softened, about 5 minutes.
- While the sausage cooks, grease two 6-ounce ramekins. In each ramekin, layer 1/4 cup cubed bread and 1 tablespoon shredded cheese.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together 4 large eggs, 1/2 cup milk, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper.
- Pour the egg mixture evenly over the bread and cheese in the ramekins.
- Top each casserole with 1/2 of the browned sausage mixture.
- Bake for 45-50 minutes, or until the eggs are set and the casserole is golden brown.
Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor
Chef's secret: layers of flavor make a dish truly memorable! Consider what a little extra something could bring – perhaps a touch of acidity like a good vinegar or citrus zest, a hint of smokiness from paprika, a bit of umami from mushrooms or soy sauce, or a sprinkle of toasted nuts for texture. Experiment and taste as you go!
