My husband and I are not morning people whatsoever. We hate getting up early and even more so, as much as we are absolutely starving almost instantly when we wake up, we detest making breakfast because it just takes so long. We have made it (an almost unhealthy) habit to get up, make our bed, throw on a t-shirt and shorts and head out to breakfast in our area. We’ll go to a Cuban bakery or a French café, but we never eat at home.

As of late, though, we’ve really been wanting to kick these habits. We are always spending so much money and eating really fatty foods that have made us gain between 10-15 pounds in the last year. It really isn’t helping our wallet or waists. So, as usual, I asked my best friend Pinterest for some help. And guess what? Once again, it did not fail. I found so many recipes, but my favorite so far has been this one. It is a sausage, hash brown breakfast casserole with every delicious flavor you would want to enjoy for breakfast. Now, I will admit, although it is cheaper, it does not mean it is healthier. It is still pretty fatty as well. But mmm, so so good!

Quick Tip: Swap the sausage for ham if you prefer.

This is one of the BEST breakfast bakes that I’ve ever made in my life.

Whenever you have house guests sleeping over food is always the biggest concern. What do you feed these people? I know that the easier the meal is to prepare the better, which is why breakfast casseroles are an amazing gift to us from the morning gods lol! All you’re doing is mix up the eggs, add in the veggies, cheese, and meat, pour into a greased baking dish and there you have it! I love this Smokey Mountain breakfast bake because it contains lots of ooey gooey cheese, like Velveeta.

I know Velveeta isn’t the healthiest thing on the block but seriously, it tastes amazing in this casserole. I’ve made this casserole several times already – for house guests as well as just my family members, and it has always been a great hit.

You can easily change it up, too, so you won’t get bored of it no matter how often you’re making it!

With two working parents and three kids to get out the door, I feel pretty good on mornings that I remember to slice some banana into my daughter’s cereal.  The boys prefer their waffles wrapped in a paper towel and on the way out the door.

I miss the breakfasts of my childhood, with homemade pancakes and crispy bacon and orange juice that my mom squeezed fresh every morning. I strive to make our weekend breakfasts special and this casserole is everyone’s favorite.

Quick Tip:  This recipe works best for us when assembled on Friday night and put in the oven on Saturday morning.

I am a total morning person. I love getting up before the sun rises. I consider it my special time alone before the hustle and bustle of the day begins. However, my husband and kids do not share my morning-time sentiments. Trying to get them up is like convincing a death row inmate to walk the row.

I have discovered that nothing rouses them better than a fresh pot of coffee brewing and a piping hot breakfast casserole baking in the oven. Seriously, when I have this ham, cheese, and egg casserole heating in the oven, I rarely have to place the standard wake-up call to my family. They get up on their own to see what’s cooking. How ironic that this morning life saver is dubbed, “Wake-Up Casserole.”

Quick Tip: I usually serve this casserole with fresh fruit and tall glasses of whole milk or apple/orange juice.

This Breakfast Recipe Is Taking The Internet By Storm!

Although this is called a breakfast casserole, it doesn’t really matter what time you make this masterpiece! Breakfast, lunch or dinner – it will always turn out a wonderful, hearty meal for your whole family.

I have to admit, though, that I especially love this for breakfast. I mean, why make a breakfast with all separate components, when you can toss everything into one easy, delicious dish? This is so perfect for those lazy Sunday mornings, when everyone wakes up a little later than usual. But if you prepare this the night before, you can easily throw make it any day of the week!

This casserole serves 6-8 people, and is ready in under an hour.  The ingredients are simple (you may even have everything in your pantry right now), so dive in to a breakfast buffet of delightful flavors. And don’t forget to let us know how this turned out for you! I’m sure our readers would love to hear if you made some delicious tweaks to the recipe!

If you can’t decide whether you want the eggs and meat on the side, or some other eggs and toast combination, now you can have everything in one bite, with this cheesy hearty casserole.

Not many people think of casserole, when they think of breakfast, but it’s actually a great recipe for when you have a group of people to feed (that’s usually when last minute breakfast is decided, anyways).  This recipe serves 8 and is ready in under 40 minutes.

Bring the savory flavor of the Wild West to your breakfast table with this hearty Southwestern Breakfast Casserole. It’s great for potlucks and large family meals and bakes in just an hour.

I can be a bit picky about my breakfast food. Though I settle for the absolute basics when I have to, I really prefer something rather hearty and a bit outside the norm that isn’t too difficult to foot the bill.  This Southwestern breakfast casserole fits the bill nicely.
