Breakfast Casserole

My next door neighbor's husband passed away recently and I offered to take her a casserole for her out of town guests before the service next week. She requested a breakfast casserole, the kind with eggs, bacon, with bread on the bottom. I'm going to put some of my husband's white bread slices on the bottom because they don't need gluten-free.

Does anyone have a tried and true recipe you'd like to share? I don't want to experiment with a new recipe off the internet for this one.

Oh, and she said you make it the night before and put it in the refrigerator overnight, but she doesn't have the recipe.

Many thanks for anyone's help.

Here's one that sound similar to what she is talking about, but it's done in the slow cooker:

I haven't made that one but I have made this one more than once: Open Original Shared Link

And it's really good. If you do it in the slow cooker one of the advantages is that it can stay warm on the warm setting until they are ready to eat it.

That sounds really good. What kind of sausages do you use? They must be pretty big.

This one doesn't have bread in the bottom but I love it. We usually use bacon and the veggies are easily customizable based on what's around. My family likes sauteed mushrooms and chopped up red bell peppers, no onions.

I use Al Fresco Breakfast chicken sausages OR Harvestland apple and maple chicken sausage. Both are smaller than the ones she used. The only reason I use the brands I use though is that I'm allergic to pork and they are the only non-pork sausages I have found without pork casings and also without any cheese, soy or gluten. I bet you could use any type of sausage or even kielbasa and it would be good.

Those brands sound great. Didn't know about them. Will probably use regular brand pork for my neighbor, though. Will keep these in mind for my own use later :) I rarely ever eat pork, either.

Yum! This Looks very good and is very similar what I posted that I make overnight in the slow cooker except with ham, bacon or sausage. Breakfast casseroles are really so versatile! You can throw whatever you want in them. Just don't use vanilla flavored milk if using a non-dairy milk sub. :blink:

Yeah, people that can eat pork tend to think chicken sausage is weird, LOL! I didn't realize this until recently when I had guests and I served them chicken sausage. They thought it tasted good but I didn't warn them it was chicken (I've been allergic to pork for so long I don't really remember the difference in taste) and they were taken by surprise. If you like non-pork sausage another brand I like is Applegate farms chicken and apple. But I have not been able to find those where I currently live and have never used them in a casserole.

      Hello, @Jane02, I take Naturewise D 3. It contains olive oil. Some Vitamin D supplements, like D Drops, are made with fractionated coconut oil which can cause digestive upsets. Fractionated coconut oil is not the same as coconut oil used for cooking. Fractionated coconut oil has been treated for longer shelf life, so it won't go bad in the...

      I do not know this, but since they are labelled gluten-free, and are not really a product that could easily be contaminated when making them (there would be not flour in the air of such a facility, for example), I don't really see contamination as something to be concerned about for this type of product.

      Thank you so much @knitty kitty for this insightful information! I would have never considered fractionated coconut oil to be a potential source of GI upset. I will consider all the info you shared. Very interesting about the Thiamine deficiency.  I've tracked daily averages of my intake in a nutrition software. The only nutrient I can't consistently meet from my diet is vitamin D. Calcium is a hit and miss as I rely on vegetables, dark leafy greens as a major source, for my calcium intake. I'm able to meet it when I either eat or juice a bundle of kale or collard greens daily haha. My thiamine intake is roughly 120% of my needs, although I do recognize that I may not be absorbing all of these nutrients consistently with intermittent unintentional exposures to gluten.  My vitamin A intake is roughly 900% (~6400 mcg/d) of my needs as I eat a lot of sweet potato, although since it's plant-derived vitamin A (beta-carotene) apparently it's not likely to cause toxicity.  Thanks again!

      Hello, @Jane02,  I take Naturewise D 3.  It contains olive oil.   Some Vitamin D supplements, like D Drops, are made with fractionated coconut oil which can cause digestive upsets.  Fractionated coconut oil is not the same as coconut oil used for cooking.  Fractionated coconut oil has been treated for longer shelf life, so it won't go bad in the jar, and thus may be irritating to the digestive system. I avoid supplements made with soy because many people with Celiac Disease also react to soy.  Mixed tocopherols, an ingredient in Thornes Vitamin D, may be sourced from soy oil.  Kirkland's has soy on its ingredient list. I avoid things that might contain or be exposed to crustaceans, like Metagenics says on its label.  I have a crustacean/shellfish/fish allergy.  I like Life Extension Bioactive Complete B Complex.  I take additional Thiamine B 1 in the form Benfotiamine which helps the intestines heal, Life Extension MegaBenfotiamine. Thiamine is needed to activate Vitamin D.   Low thiamine can make one feel like they are getting glutened after a meal containing lots of simple carbohydrates like white rice, or processed gluten free foods like cookies and pasta.   It's rare to have a single vitamin deficiency.  The water soluble B Complex vitamins should be supplemented together with additional Thiamine in the form Benfotiamine and Thiamine TTFD (tetrahydrofurfuryl disulfide) to correct subclinical deficiencies that don't show up on blood tests.  These are subclinical deficiencies within organs and tissues.  Blood is a transportation system.  The body will deplete tissues and organs in order to keep a supply of thiamine in the bloodstream going to the brain and heart.   If you're low in Vitamin D, you may well be low in other fat soluble vitamins like Vitamin A and Vitamin K. Have you seen a dietician?
