How to Make Johnsonville Easter Breakfast Casserole

  1. Cook 1 lb Johnsonville sausage according to package directions. Drain off any excess grease.
  2. Let the sausage cool slightly, then cut into 1/4-inch slices.
  3. Grease a 13x9 inch baking dish. Place 6 cups of cubed English muffins in the bottom of the prepared dish. Drizzle with 2 tablespoons melted butter.
  4. Layer half of the sausage, 1.5 cups shredded cheddar cheese, 1/2 cup chopped onion, and 1/2 cup chopped bell pepper (any color) over the English muffin cubes.
  5. In a large bowl, whisk together 8 large eggs, 1 cup milk, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon black pepper.
  6. Pour the egg mixture evenly over the sausage and cheese layer.
  7. Sprinkle the remaining sausage, cheese, onion, and bell pepper over the egg mixture. Top with 4 slices crumbled bacon.
  8. Cover the casserole with plastic wrap and refrigerate overnight.
  9. Remove from the refrigerator 30 minutes before baking. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  10. Uncover and bake for 45-50 minutes, or until a knife inserted into the center comes out clean and the casserole is set.
  11. Let the casserole stand for 10 minutes before slicing and serving.
