A visit with my parents these days includes a few freezer meals, plus usually something to share while I am there. I always try to think of something different to take and since I was going on Sunday morning, I decided to try a breakfast casserole dish, that I could simply serve with some fruit. They are always very appreciative of whatever I bring, so I try to cook a mix of new recipes, old family recipes and especially dishes I know they would like, but probably won't make for themselves. At this point, it's basic fare that can be made in bulk and freezes well, but it does help them so much to have things to pull out of the freezer.
This Sausage Cornbread Breakfast Casserole is a little unique with its cornbread flavor; slightly sweet, but very delicious. It has green chilies added, but I didn't find it too spicy, for those who prefer a little less heat in the morning. I halved the recipe to make it in an 8x8 baking dish and there was plenty for three people, with some leftover to reheat and enjoy later. Brunch items are my favorite and this is a recipe I will keep. You can find the recipe here.
Happy Monday!

I love brunch dishes, too, although I don't know about cornbread in the mornings. Can you believe a Southern girl is saying that?!
ReplyDeleteYUM! I always serve a breakfast casserole on Christmas morning:) Have a blessed day dear friend, HUGS!

ReplyDeleteLooks good . . .
ReplyDeleteBet your parents loved it . . . and you!
(I have this funny thing about corn . . . I only like it one way . . .)
I have never eaten breakfast casserole, it looks very tempting. Brunch is my favourite meal of all, I like to combine some sweet favourites (bread and jam) with savoury food (eggs, cheese and ham). I am unbelievably hungry at the moment, I probably should read blog post with food pictures :-)
ReplyDeleteNever thought about using cornbread in breakfast dishes...which is crazy cuz we eat cornbread almost daily here in the south!
ReplyDeleteDefinitely making this for weekend. Already printed it out! Mushroom soup too??
Love this recipe. Thanks!
This looks and sounds heavenly, Vicki. I'm always looking for something that can feed company at the lake. Pinning!
ReplyDeleteYou will like the Italian Spread in my post. You bake it but it is just as nice warmed up in the microwave later. :)
