Sausage and Sweet Potato Breakfast Casserole

This is a great hearty breakfast casserole. I will saute and throw in any vegetables that I have around as well. I found that mushrooms and broccoli do well in this! It seems like we can never make enough of it!

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Grease a 9x13-inch glass baking dish.

Step 2

Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Cook sweet potatoes, stirring occasionally, until soft, 10 to 15 minutes. Transfer to a large bowl. Add sausage to the skillet; cook and stir until browned and crumbly, about 10 minutes. Add onion, jalapeno, and garlic and cook 3 minutes more. Transfer mixture to the bowl with the sweet potatoes and add tomatoes. Stir and spread into the prepared baking dish.

Step 3

Whisk eggs, milk, cream, 1 1/2 cups Cheddar cheese, and salt together in a bowl. Pour over mixture in the baking dish. Sprinkle remaining Cheddar cheese on top.

Step 4

Bake in the preheated oven until top is golden brown and knife inserted in the center comes out clean, 30 to 45 minutes. Let stand 5 minutes before serving.
