Ingredients
- Cajun sausage
- Biscuits
- Eggs
- Cheese (shredded cheddar or pepper jack or mozzarella)
- Bell peppers (green or red or jalapeños)
- Onions
- Milk (whole or unsweetened non-dairy alternative)
- Spices (paprika, cayenne, garlic powder)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- In a large skillet over medium heat, crumble and cook the Cajun sausage until browned and fully cooked, about 5-7 minutes. Drain excess fat if necessary.
- Add diced bell peppers and onions to the skillet with the sausage and sauté until the vegetables are soft, about 3-4 minutes.
- Open the refrigerated biscuit dough and cut each biscuit into quarters. Spread them evenly across the bottom of a greased 9×13 inch baking dish.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, and your Cajun spices (paprika, cayenne, garlic powder). Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Pour the cooked sausage and vegetable mixture over the biscuit pieces in the baking dish. Then, evenly pour the egg mixture over the top.
- Sprinkle the shredded cheese generously over the top of the casserole.
- Place the casserole in the preheated oven and bake for about 30-35 minutes, or until the eggs are set and the top is golden brown.
- Once baked, let the casserole rest for about 5-10 minutes before slicing.
