Ingredients

  • 1 package breakfast sausage 12 ounces
  • 12 large eggs
  • 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
  • ¾ cup heavy whipping cream
  • 1 tablespoon Frank’s Red Hot Sauce
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 2 tablespoons green onions sliced, optional garnish

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  • Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add sausage, breaking meat apart with a wooden spoon, and cook until meat is thoroughly cooked and no longer pink, about 5-7 minutes. Spread the cooked sausage over the bottom of a 9x13-inch casserole dish.
  • Add eggs to a large bowl and whisk. Whisk in the cream, hot sauce, and shredded cheddar cheese. Pour the egg mixture over the sausage and spread evenly.
  • Bake until firm and cooked through, 30 to 40 minutes.

Notes

Make ahead: Assemble, cover and refrigerate overnight, then bake. A cold casserole may need a few extra minutes, so check that the center is set.
