how to make Bubble Up Breakfast Casserole

Ingredients:

• 6 slices of bacon (cut into bite-sized pieces)
• 1 pound breakfast sausage
• 1 (16 ounce) can Grands biscuits
• 8 large eggs
• 1 ¼ cup milk
• ½ teaspoon garlic powder
• ½ teaspoon salt
• ¼ teaspoon black pepper
• 2 cups shredded cheese (I used colby jack)
• Green onions (for garnish)

Directions:

1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
2. Heat a large 12-inch skillet on medium-high heat. Add the chopped bacon and cook until it’s done. Then, remove the bacon and place it on a paper towel to drain.
3. Next, add the sausage to the same skillet and cook until it is browned and crumbly. Once done, remove it to a plate.
4. Turn off the heat, wipe out any leftover grease, or spray a 9×13 baking dish with cooking spray.
5. Cut the biscuits into quarters and place them into the skillet or the prepared baking dish.
6. In a medium bowl, add the eggs, milk, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Whisk everything together until well combined.
7. Pour the cooked sausage on top of the biscuits, followed by the whisked egg mixture and cheese.
8. Bake for 30-35 minutes or until the eggs are set.
9. Remove from the oven and add the cooked bacon on top. Let it cool for 5 minutes, garnish with minced green onions, and serve!
