Easy Make-Ahead Breakfast Casserole

I love eating breakfast, but I don't love making breakfast first thing in the morning. This Overnight Breakfast Burrito Casserole is my perfect breakfast! Assemble the casserole the night before and pop it in the oven when you get up in the morning. SO easy and SO delicious! A delicious hot breakfast without any work in the morning.

We LOVED this easy make-ahead breakfast casserole. Tortillas stuffed with sausage, hash browns, and cheese and topped with eggs and more cheese. What's not to like?!?! While this is a "breakfast casserole", it is also great for lunch or dinner. It is also great for baby showers, overnight guests, school day mornings, tailgating, and potlucks.

How to Make Overnight Breakfast Burrito Casserole

This Overnight Breakfast Burrito Casserole is very easy to make. Start with browning the breakfast sausage in a skillet. Remove the cooked sausage from the skillet, but leave the grease. Add a bag of shredded hash browns and cook the hashbrowns until they start to brown. Place the cooked sausage, hash browns, and some cheese on top of a tortilla and roll up. Place in a baking dish. Whisk together the eggs and cream and pour over the burritos. Top with more cheese and cover and refrigerate. Pull the casserole out in the morning and bake. Easy Peasy!

I used flour tortillas in this Overnight Breakfast Burrito Casserole. Feel free to swap them for corn tortillas. You will get more breakfast burritos using corn tortillas because they are smaller. 

What Can I Add to the Breakfast Burrito Mixture?

Feel free to add onions, spinach, bell peppers, and mushrooms to the burrito mixture. Add the veggies to the skillet when the sausage or hash browns cook to soften them and reduce moisture. You could even add a can of diced tomatoes and green chiles to the mixture if you want to kick these up a notch!

Can I Freeze Overnight Breakfast Burrito Casserole?

Sure! This Overnight Breakfast Burrito Casserole will freeze great. Make the casserole up to the point of refrigerating. Cover the casserole dish and freeze it. To bake from frozen, thaw completely in the refrigerator and bake as directed below. 

You can also freeze this Overnight Breakfast Burrito Casserole after it has baked. Cover the casserole and thaw and reheat when ready to serve. You can reheat the casserole in the oven or microwave. 

For leftovers, I wrap the individual breakfast burritos in plastic wrap and place them in a freezer bag. That way I can pull one breakfast burrito out of the freezer for a quick breakfast. Just pop in the microwave for a few minutes and breakfast is done!

A Comforting Braised Pig Feet Recipe Perfect for Your Pressure Cooker

Image
Louiie Victa Chef Jenny Dorsey’s recipe is a testament to the trotter’s versatility When I go grocery shopping, I always look for pig feet. In the sea of unrecognizably standard-looking cuts of animal muscles at grocery stores — disk-shaped loins, round humps of pork butt — trotters are always the anomaly. They look most precisely as they were: feet, hooves, the tired bones and tissue that kept an animal upright its whole life. Unfortunately for pig feet, their look hasn’t exactly made them a popular part of the mainstream American diet. As Cecil Adams wrote back in 2016, one of the challenges in encouraging more Americans to consume offal and organ meat is that “organs resemble, well, body parts: any steak slapped on a plate looks like dinner, while a lovingly presented calf heart may suggest an autopsy.” And, Adams added, there’s the “socioeconomic stigma…that had a racial component too,” which is only exacerbated by “travelogue shows [like] Bizarre Foods .” Despite being mali...

Beyond Impossible: The Sanitarium and World War II Past of Meat Substitutes

Image
Photo by Tom Kelley/Getty Images We’ve come a long way from John Harvey Kellogg’s “protose cutlets” It’s no stretch to say that fake meat is having a moment . With the popularity of brands such as Impossible Foods and Beyond Meat joining fast-food menus and grocery store aisles alike, plant-based meats are no longer seen as a sad option for vegetarians long denied flavor with meat substitutes (though, as we know, plenty of vegetarian food is packed with flavor), but for anyone who enjoys a good burger, fried chicken, or nuggets. But are meat substitutes really the future of eating? Maybe by necessity as food resources run out, but not likely by choice. In fact, despite the big money raked in by Impossible and Beyond over the past few years, industrial meat consumption in America is actually on the rise. This week on Gastropod , Cynthia Graber and Nicola Twilley see how the not-sausage gets made, with visits to the Impossible Meat lab and Meati , a Colorado-based start-up that’...

Without Government Aid, Americans in Need Are Shoplifting Food Essentials

Image
Photo: Niloo /Shutterstock Plus, Colin Kaepernick gets his own Ben & Jerry’s ice cream flavor, and more news to start your day More people admit to shoplifting what they need to survive Since the pandemic began, Americans have called for relief for individuals and small businesses. Stimulus checks, rent and mortgage cancelation, and universal health care have all been on the table. But aside from $1,200 months ago, we’ve gotten none of that, and the latest stimulus package is woefully inadequate. So, as the Washington Post reports , more people than ever have resorted to stealing essentials like bread, baby formula, and diapers to survive. Honestly, what did the government expect? WaPo says there’s been a 45 percent increase in the number of Americans facing hunger this year, up to 54 million people. Lines at food banks have been miles long for months, with many saying that mutual aid groups and donations can’t keep up with demand . And with SNAP and WIC programs cut back,...
