How to Make a Breakfast Casserole with Turkey Sausage

While the recipe does require some time to “sit” overnight, this easy breakfast casserole with turkey sausage is not very labor intensive once it’s all mixed.

This overnight turkey sausage breakfast casserole will make your mornings easier and more delicious.

And then the oven does most of the work while you can get your chores done, like laundry, cleaning, or even sneak a quick workout in. I’ll use my bike for peloton workouts so I don’t have to leave the house. 

You can easily do the preparation the morning of, and it will take about 10 minutes for prep. To prep, cook your turkey sausage if it’s not pre-cooked (either will work for this casserole recipe). You’ll also want to cook your veggies.

Whisk your ingredients in a bowl, adding in the veggies and turkey sausage last. Then, let them cool and pour in a casserole dish for baking.

Bake for 45-55 minutes or until cooked through.

This works especially well on holidays. So, save this holiday breakfast casserole recipe for when the time comes and you’re feeding a large group.
