This is a recipe from the wall of our old home. Which means, I have no idea where it came from after 7 years. I'm posting these because they are my favorites if they made it to the wall.

I love this easy recipe. I made a few alterations the second time around. I only used 1/2 lb of sausage and cut the cheese down to 2 cups ( 1 pkg) of a mexican blend. This recipe makes great leftovers for a quick breakfast throughout the week.

    I had to take a brunch casserole to church on Easter Sunday for the Youth Breakfast. I used this recipe and it disappeared quickly. At the committee meeting this past week, the chair wanted a copy of the recipe. I had made this before just as the recipe was written, but on Sunday I added 1 can of diced green chili peppers and used more Cheddar in place of the Swiss cheese. Either way this recipe is fantastic!

    Wonderful recipe. Lots of flavor and goes together so fast with the croutons. We held on the swiss but doubled up on the pepper jack. I served it with #78853, #59635, a fruit salad, and a maple bar recipe. Wonderful brunch!

    A++++++!!! This deserves 10 stars. I halved the recipe and made it for 2 people and they both said it tasted better than the restaurant they always eat at. I did not have the monterey jack so I just added extra swiss and cheddar. I used garlic and butter flavored croutons. Since I made it the night before all the croutons soaked in the egg and added extreme flavor. I added some chopped green peppers to the top. This will become a defenite keeper. This would be good to make for church brunches or breakfast. Thank you so much Jess for the recipe!!! Highly recommend trying this and you wont be dissappointed!!
