Description
Okay, so you know how biscuits and gravy is basically the king of comfort food breakfasts? Well, I took that concept and turned it into the laziest, most delicious casserole ever. Instead of standing over the stove making individual biscuits and stirring gravy, you just dump everything in a pan and let the oven do the work. It’s like having a Southern diner breakfast without putting on pants or leaving your house. Plus, there’s CHEESE involved, because everything’s better with cheese, right?
Ingredients
Scale
For the Base:
- 1 tube refrigerated biscuits (the big fluffy kind, like Grands – about 8 biscuits)
- 1 lb breakfast sausage (Jimmy Dean or whatever’s on sale)
- 1/3 cup all-purpose flour (for the gravy magic)
- 2–3 cups whole milk (don’t go low-fat on me here, we’re not dieting)
- 1 packet sausage gravy mix (yes, I’m cheating and I don’t care)
- Salt and black pepper to taste
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder (because garlic makes everything better)
For the Cheese Situation:
- 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese (sharp is my favorite, but mild works too)
- 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella (for that stretchy cheese pull)
- 4 oz cream cheese, cubed (trust me on this one)
Optional Add-Ins (because why not?):
- 6 strips bacon, cooked and crumbled
- 1/2 cup diced green onions
- 1 can diced green chiles (4 oz)
- 1/2 cup frozen hash browns (for extra breakfast vibes)
- Hot sauce for serving (Frank’s RedHot is my go-to)
