Ingredients

• 1 (8-count) tube of refrigerated biscuits
• 1 lb ground breakfast sausage
• 2 packs country gravy mix
• 1 can evaporated milk (12 oz)
• 12 large eggs
• Salt and pepper, to taste

Directions

1. Preheat the Oven: Preheat the oven to 350°F and grease a 9×13-inch baking dish.
2. Cook the Sausage: In a large skillet, cook the ground breakfast sausage over medium heat until fully browned. Drain any excess grease.
3. Make the Gravy: Reduce the heat to medium and sprinkle the gravy mix over the cooked sausage. Add 1 cup of evaporated milk and 1 cup of water. Stir and cook until the mixture thickens.
4. Prepare the Eggs: In a bowl, whisk together the eggs, 5 oz of evaporated milk, and salt and pepper to taste. Scramble the eggs lightly in a skillet over medium heat until they’re just starting to set.
5. Assemble the Casserole:
   • Layer 1/3 of the sausage gravy mixture in the bottom of the greased 9×13 baking dish.
   • Top with half of the scrambled eggs.
   • Add another layer of gravy, followed by the remaining scrambled eggs.
   • Finish by spreading the remaining gravy mixture over the top.
6. Add the Biscuits: Cut the refrigerated biscuits into quarters and arrange them on top of the casserole.
7. Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 20–25 minutes or until the biscuits are fully cooked and golden brown on top.
8. Serve and Enjoy: Let the casserole cool for a few minutes before serving.

Tips

• For a Creamier Gravy: Use half-and-half instead of evaporated milk to make the gravy extra creamy.
• Customize the Filling: Add sautéed veggies like bell peppers or onions to the sausage gravy for extra flavor.
• Make-Ahead: Prepare the casserole the night before and refrigerate it until ready to bake in the morning.
