Today I'm sharing some hearty, easy & delicious breakfast ideas. A Cheesy Sausage Breakfast Bake is coming up – along with some bacon love. Oh, and I have a breakfast deal to share with you too 🙂
“Eat Breakfast Like a King, Lunch Like a Prince, and Dinner Like a Pauper”.
One of my family's favorite breakfasts is a Cheesy Sausage Breakfast Bake. I've been making if for years and still make it often for breakfast – it's filling, delicious and everyone wants seconds. Here's some great news – it can be made ahead of time and reheated in the microwave – the leftovers are just as delicious. Perfect way to get a homemade breakfast on the table on those crazy and hectic mornings.
Oh, and I must mention how simple this breakfast is to make. It takes about ten minutes of hands on attention and then everything gets thrown in the oven to bake. Jimmy Dean Premium Pork Sausage is the star ingredient in this breakfast bake. It's seasoned to absolute perfection – your breakfast will always taste great!

Yum, I love these breakfast bakes. I am right along with you I love breakfast. I have never made bacon in the oven, sounds like it is easy and works great. Thanks for the tip.

Yum! I love how this can be made ahead of time and, seriously, you can’t go wrong with these ingredients, especially all that cheesy goodness 🙂 !! I could (and have) eaten breakfast for dinner many times. This would be so great for having family over on Saturday or Sunday. Big batch of this and a fruit salad for good measure and I’d be set 😉 Lovely recipe Amanda! Have a great upcoming weekend!!

Thanks Dawn! Love breakfast for dinner! We do breakfast for dinner often – we have a ton of fresh eggs that always need to be used and it makes up for the many mornings we all end up eating cereal.
Hope you’re having a fabulous weekend 🙂
