This savory casserole is perfect for a hearty breakfast or brunch, combining flavorful sausage, creamy cheese, and a hint of spice.
Combine the ground pork sausage, shredded cheddar cheese, evaporated milk, eggs, dry mustard, onion powder, and black pepper in a large mixing bowl.
Ensure the ingredients are evenly mixed for consistent flavor throughout the casserole.
Cover the mixture and refrigerate overnight to allow the flavors to meld.
Refrigerating overnight enhances the flavor, but if short on time, a few hours will suffice.
Preheat your oven to 325°F (165°C) and grease a 13x9 inch baking dish.
Use a non-stick spray or butter to grease the dish for easy cleanup.
Pour the mixture into the prepared baking dish and spread it evenly.
Ensure the mixture is evenly distributed for uniform cooking.
Bake in the preheated oven for 55-60 minutes, or until the top is golden and the center is set.
If the top browns too quickly, cover it with aluminum foil to prevent burning.
Let the casserole cool for a few minutes before slicing and serving.
Allowing the casserole to rest makes it easier to slice and enhances the flavor.
