Ingredients

• 1 pound Ground breakfast sausage
• 6 Large eggs
• 1 cup Whole milk
• 1 cup Shredded cheddar cheese
• 0.5 cup Shredded mozzarella cheese
• 0.5 cup Onion
• 0.5 cup Bell pepper
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
• 0.5 teaspoon Dried parsley
• 1 tablespoon Butter

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

Step 2

Grease a 9x9-inch baking dish with the butter and set aside.

Step 3

In a medium skillet, cook the ground breakfast sausage over medium heat until browned and cooked through. Break it into small crumbles as it cooks, about 5-7 minutes. Drain any excess grease and set aside.

Step 4

In the same skillet, sauté the diced onion and bell pepper over medium heat until softened and fragrant, about 3-4 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside.

Step 5

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, black pepper, and dried parsley until fully combined.

Step 6

Layer the cooked sausage evenly in the bottom of the prepared baking dish. Add the cooked onions and peppers over the sausage.

Step 7

Sprinkle the shredded cheddar and mozzarella cheeses over the onion and pepper mixture, spreading them evenly across the dish.

Step 8

Pour the egg mixture over the layers in the baking dish, ensuring it is evenly distributed.

Step 9

Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the eggs are fully set and the top is slightly golden.

Step 10

Remove the dish from the oven and allow it to cool for 5 minutes before serving.

Step 11

Slice into portions and serve warm. Enjoy your hearty baked sausage and eggs!
