For a spicier kick, add a pinch of red pepper flakes to the sausage while browning. Feel free to substitute different types of cheese, such as Monterey Jack or Pepper Jack. If you don't have English muffins, you can use croissants or day-old bread. This casserole can be assembled a day in advance and baked just before serving, making it perfect for busy mornings.

Follow The Directions
01
StepIn a large skillet, brown the ground sausage over medium-high heat, breaking it up with a spoon. Cook until no longer pink, about 5 minutes. Drain off any excess grease.
02
StepArrange the torn English muffin pieces evenly across the bottom of a 9x13-inch baking dish. (1 minute)
03
StepLayer the cooked sausage, diced onion, and diced bell pepper over the English muffins. Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese evenly over the top. (3 minutes)
04
StepIn a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, dried basil, and black pepper until well combined. (2 minutes)
05
StepPour the egg mixture evenly over the casserole. Gently press down on the top of the casserole with a spatula to ensure all ingredients are submerged in the egg mixture. (1 minute)
06
StepCover the baking dish tightly with plastic wrap or foil and refrigerate for at least 8 hours, or preferably overnight. (8 hours)
07
StepPreheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). (10 minutes)
08
StepUncover the casserole and bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until the casserole is set and the eggs are cooked through. A knife inserted into the center should come out clean. (35 minutes)
09
StepLet the casserole cool for 10-15 minutes before slicing and serving. (15 minutes)
