The Secret to an Easy Easter Morning

Easter Breakfast Casserole

Ingredients:

1 lb breakfast sausage (or diced ham if you prefer)
6 large eggs
2 cups milk
1 tsp salt
½ tsp black pepper
1 tsp garlic powder
1 tsp onion powder
4 cups cubed bread (day-old works best)
2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
1 cup diced bell peppers (optional)
½ cup chopped green onions

Instructions:

Preheat oven to 350°F and grease a 9x13 baking dish.
Cook the sausage in a skillet over medium heat until browned. Drain excess grease.
In a large bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, salt, pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder.
Layer the cubed bread evenly in the baking dish.
Sprinkle cooked sausage, bell peppers, and green onions over the bread.
Pour the egg mixture evenly over everything.
Top with cheddar and mozzarella cheese.
Cover and refrigerate overnight (or at least 2 hours if short on time).
Bake uncovered for 45–50 minutes, until the center is set and the top is golden.
Let sit for 5–10 minutes before serving.

This is one of those recipes that quietly becomes tradition. It’s simple, flexible, and feeds a crowd without much effort. Whether your Easter morning is calm or a little chaotic, at least breakfast is handled.
