How to Make Cheesy Sausage and Egg Bake

From preparing your ingredients to achieving that ideal cheesy crust, we'll show you exactly what to look for along the way. Full recipe below.

1. Prepare & Layer

Heat your oven to 350°F and grease a 13x9-inch baking dish. A well-greased dish is your secret to a perfect, non-stick release, making serving a breeze. Layer the cooked (and drained!) bulk pork sausage, sliced mushrooms, sliced green onions, chopped tomatoes, and shredded mozzarella cheese evenly in the prepared dish.

2. Whisk Egg Mixture 

In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the Bisquick™ mix, milk, salt, oregano leaves (fresh or dried), pepper, and eggs. Whisk these ingredients together until they are well blended and you see a smooth, golden mixture with no lumps. 

3. Combine & Bake 

Pour the whisked egg mixture evenly over the layered ingredients in the baking dish. Bake, uncovered, for 30 to 35 minutes, or until the bake is golden brown and set in the center.

4.  Rest & Serve 

Once baked, remove the dish from the oven and let it stand for 10 minutes before serving. This allows the bake to set properly and makes for easier serving.

How to Store (and Reheat) Cheesy Sausage and Egg Bake

It's best to serve this Cheesy Sausage and Egg Bake while it's warm from the oven. If you find yourself with delicious leftovers, though, here's how to store and reheat them safely.

Refrigerator 

Place any cooled leftovers in an air-tight container or wrap tightly with plastic wrap. Store in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. 

Freezer 

Once completely cooled, you can freeze individual portions wrapped tightly in plastic wrap and then aluminum foil, or freeze the entire remaining bake in a freezer-safe container. Store up to 2 months. Thaw overnight in the refrigerator before reheating.

Reheating 

To reheat individual servings, place on a microwave-safe plate, cover, and microwave on medium-high (70%) for about 1 to 2 minutes, or until thoroughly warm in the center. For larger portions or to achieve a crisper texture, you can reheat in a 300°F oven for 15-20 minutes, or until heated through.
