Facebook | Pinterest | Instagram What would you wish for? You only have 10 seconds to decide! GO!! Here’s Eric’s list: the new Zelda game, new family car, and movie passes for life. (Zelda????? You learn a lot about someone in 10 seconds.) He did it for me immediately after, and of course I was stupid and hadn’t been thinking of my list while I was counting down his, so I only had 10 seconds to think; number 1 was to get an interior decorator, 2 was a minivan, and 3 was world peace. (PUH-LEASE.) We asked Charlotte and started counting down. She said, “I just want the whole world to be edible.” WELL PLAYED, FOUR YEAR OLD. You win. Well since we can’t munch on our chocolate pencils or snack on our cheese-flavored iPhones, I guess we’ll have to make real food. I wanted to try a casserole version, even though I was quite dubious about how the texture would turn out. I mean, won’t the biscuits get soggy? Oh no. It’s perfect. When I made it the first time I didn’t eat anything else for like a day and a half. Not kidding. It makes a great breakfast, lunch, or dinner, I can attest. Nate came over and was like, “Do you mind if I just eat all of this?” I got the recipe from Miss Information (who has such a cute blog, check it out!) Her recipe calls for a gravy mix, but I wanted to do a homemade version because I like the flavor and it’s not hard. So I nabbed The Pioneer Woman’s sausage gravy recipe and OH MY GOODNESS. Best biscuits and gravy casserole EVER. If you make this for Christmas, everyone will LOVE you.
To make the casserole immediately:
To make the casserole the night before:
Instead of sausage, use bacon. Cook and crumble it before adding the flour and completing the gravy. Use maple sausage or hot sausage instead of regular breakfast sausage. Swap out the cheddar cheese for pepper jack, monterey jack, or a combination of cheeses that you prefer. Making this for vegetarians? Use plant-based sausage instead. Add veggies! Cook up some diced onions and/or peppers and add them to the casserole right before you pour on the gravy.
Sour Cream Cinnamon Streusel Coffee Cake « just absolutely a ridiculous amount of streusel here (that is NOT an apology). Meyer Lemon Sweet Rolls « another panful of heaven Cinnamon Sugar Dipped Muffins « also called French Breakfast Puffs, these are incredible. Raspberry Sweet Rolls with Coconut Cream Cheese Frosting « these babies give classic cinnamon rolls a run for their money. Deep Dish Buttermilk Pancake « you read that right, it’s just one big pancake. YUM.
Can Biscuit Gravy Casserole be frozen?
Yes, you can freeze this casserole. Freeze the whole thing or freeze it in slices, it’s your choice. Whatever size you choose, the casserole should be tightly wrapped. It will last in the freezer for 2-3 months.
Reheating Sausage Gravy Breakfast Casserole
If you’re reheating a whole casserole, you can put it in the oven, tightly covered with foil, until it’s warmed through (30 minutes or so at 350). Individual slices can be microwaved.
