Country Breakfast Casserole
"A one-dish casserole with all of your Sunday morning favorites: sausage, gravy, eggs, cheese, and toast. A little different from most breakfast casseroles, as the bread goes on top and is nicely toasted when this recipe is complete. I got this recipe from Allrecipes.com, and tweaked it to my own tastes. I hope you like it, it's one of my favorites."

This is a wonderful breakfast casserole. We love the country gravy in it. Thanks for posting. -
Awsome!! Took a chance on this recipe and now we (the family) can't wait till Saturday<br/>morning breakfast. note: in place of an onion we use scallions. Of course when freinds or<br/>family come over I tell all that this is something I came up with... hehe. What they don't<br/>know wont hurt them.

Very good! I picked this casserole for Christmas morning breakfast. I backed off on the onion amount out of family preference. This will be a regular at our house for special holiday breakfasts. Second day left overs are just as tasty. Thanks Lacer!

I love to cook, and I love to try new things whenever I can. I have two beagles who are my furry little floor cleaners, and a wonderful husband (as of 8/16/07!) who has a very talkative 10 year old daughter. She loves to help me in the kitchen when she's at our house, no matter what I'm making.

<br>My favorite cookbooks are my mom's old church cookbooks I learned to cook from when I was a child. You can always tell the pages the good recipes are on, they're stained and dirty!
