This family already loved Sister Schubert’s sausage rolls, but when a friend recommended this recipe to me online, I could tell it would be a hit. This is one of those recipes that tastes like it was much harder to make than it actually was. Choose your favorite cheese or spices that suit your family best.

Check out what the folks over at All Recipes had to say about this amazing breakfast casserole:

“Need to make breakfast for a crowd? Don’t worry! This substantial casserole of eggs, cheese, onion, spinach, sausage and Sister Schubert’s Whole Wheat Yeast Dinner Rolls can be assembled the night before and baked the next morning.”

Ingredients

6 Sister Schubert Whole Wheat Dinner Yeast Rolls (baked and cut into 1” pieces)

6 large Eggland’s Best eggs, beaten

2 ½ cups Land O Lakes Traditional Half & Half

1 teaspoon Morton salt

½ teaspoon fresh ground black pepper

2 teaspoons Tabasco hot sauce (or to taste)

2 teaspoons Crisco Pure Vegetable Oil

1 small onion, chopped

8 ounces fresh spinach

1 pound Jimmy Dean Sausage, cooked, drained and crumbled

1 ½ cups shredded Kraft Cheddar cheese

¼ cup grated Kraft Parmesan cheese

Instructions

1. Butter a 9 x 11- inch baking dish.
2. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together eggs, half and half, salt, pepper and hot sauce.
3. Heat oil in a medium skillet; add onions and saute until tender, about 3 minutes. Add spinach and cook, tossing constantly until wilted. Place mixture in a colander and drain well by pressing spinach with the back of a large spoon. Transfer spinach to a clean cotton tea towel and carefully squeeze out the remaining moisture. Transfer spinach mixture to a cutting board and coarsely chop. Place bread pieces into prepared dish.
4. Top with spinach, sausage and half of cheddar cheese. Pour egg mixture over all and top with remaining cheddar cheese and Parmesan cheese. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 2 hours or overnight.
5. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
6. Bake 45 to 55 minutes or until casserole puffs and center of casserole is set. If top of casserole is browning too quickly, cover loosely with aluminum foil during baking process. Allow 8 to 10 minutes of resting time before serving.
