Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pound (454 g) (450 grams) beef sausage
  • 8 large eggs
  • 2 cups (480 ml) (480 milliliters) vegetable oil
  • 1 teaspoon (5 ml) (5 grams) salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon (3 ml) (2.5 grams) black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon (5 ml) (5 grams) garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon (5 ml) (5 grams) onion powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon (3 ml) (2.5 grams) paprika
  • 3 cups (720 ml) (300 grams) shredded cheddar cheese
  • 4 cups (960 ml) (200 grams) cubed bread
  • 1/4 cup (60 ml) (30 grams) chopped green onions

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Cook the turkey sausage in a skillet over medium heat until browned.
  3. Drain any excess fat from the cooked sausage.
  4. In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and paprika.
  5. Add the cooked sausage to the egg mixture and stir to combine.
  6. Mix in the shredded cheddar cheese and chopped green onions.
  7. Place the cubed bread evenly in a greased 9×13-inch baking dish.
  8. Pour the egg and sausage mixture over the bread cubes, ensuring even coverage.
  9. Gently press down on the bread to help it absorb the liquid.
  10. Let the casserole sit for 10 minutes to allow the bread to soak up the mixture.
  11. Bake the casserole in the preheated oven for 45-50 minutes, or until the top is golden and the eggs are set.
  12. Remove from the oven and let it cool slightly before serving.

Notes

  • Ensure the beef sausage is fully cooked before adding it to the egg mixture to avoid any raw meat.
  • Use high-quality cheddar cheese for a flavorful and decadent casserole.
  • Allow the casserole to rest for 10 minutes before baking so the bread cubes can fully soak up the egg mixture.
