I was visiting my best friend a while ago and her friend Mary invited us for Sunday brunch while I was in town. She made her famous Overnight Sausage Bake and I was immediately in love. I asked her for the recipe because I knew I had to share this absolute deliciousness.
I have made overnight breakfast casseroles before, but I love the few tweaks in hers - the croutons are the perfect bread to soak up all that eggy goodness, and the cream of mushroom soup adds so much flavor as a topping. I absolutely love this savory casserole and will continue on in Mary's tradition of serving it to fabulous Sunday morning house guests. 😉
