Over the years, I have tried many variations of a breakfast casserole. I received this recipe thirty-eight years ago and it's the only one, so far, that my family enjoys.
old-fashioned cooked grits.
1 lb of sausage. ( I love using Wilson's hot sausage)
2 cups of shredded cheddar. (We like extra sharp)
1 can of rotell tomatoes and peppers. ( I use milder because the sausage is hot)
2 eggs
3 or 4 eggs for scrambling. (optional)
I/2 Cup of diced onion
Cook your grits according to directions.
As with all things I cook, I have to make a ton of grits.
While your grits are cooking you can go ahead and brown your sausage and onion.
I pour my sausage onto paper towels once it's done, to soak up some of the grease.
Now, I scramble my eggs in the same pan as the sausage. It just gives them a great taste.
Once your grits are done, find a big bowl and mix them with your sausage and scrambled eggs. Add the can of rotell. Add your two eggs and your cheese. Mix well and pour into a 9 x 13 casserole dish and cook at 350 until the top is golden brown.
Note. Now I don't add the scrambled eggs to my casserole. I like to serve them on the side. With a sliced tomato and a piece of toast. Enjoy!
