Biscuit Breakfast Casserole

I make biscuits and gravy a lot and I had made a bunch of biscuits one day so I needed something to do with them so they didn't go to waste.  I found this recipe on the internet and made it.  It was a great way to use up your biscuits. I added 2 extra eggs in my recipe because I don't like my casseroles dry. 


Biscuit Breakfast Casserole

6 biscuits broken in pieces
1 lbs jimmy dean breakfast sausage
3 Tbls flour 
1 1/2 cup milk
6 eggs
2 cups milk
salt and pepper to taste
1 cup of cheddar cheese

Spray a 9x13 baking pan with pam, add the broken biscuits to the pan.
Cook the 1 lbs sausage in a pan, when cooked add 3 Tbls flour to the cooked sausage, stir until well combined and cook for a few minutes to cook out the raw flour taste. add pepper if you like lots of it like me. 
slowly add 1 1/2 cup milk to the sausage. stir until combined, simmer for a few minutes until slightly thick.
Add the sausage gravy over the biscuits in the baking pan.

combine the 6 eggs, 2 cups of milk and salt and pepper to taste.  pour the eggs over the biscuits and sausage.  
add 1 cup of cheese over the top.

let it sit for 30 minutes or up to 10 hours in the refrigerator overnight. 

bake 350 degrees for 35- 45 minutes
