Description
This Southern-style kitchen sink breakfast casserole is your go-to for cleaning out the fridge! Made with whatever you’ve got on hand—day-old biscuits, croissants or my favorite - sourdough bread, a handful of veggies that need to be used up, whatever random bits of cheese you have in that drawer, and crispy bacon or sausage. This oven-baked beauty is hearty, comforting, and endlessly customizable. You can prep it the night before and just pop it in the oven come morning. It’s the kind of down-home, no-waste recipe that’ll have everyone coming back for seconds! Serves 8.
