Breakfast casserole is a hearty, customizable dish commonly enjoyed in American cuisine. Typically baked, it combines eggs, milk, and cheese with a variety of ingredients such as sausage, bacon, potatoes, or vegetables like spinach, bell peppers, and onions. It offers high protein content from the eggs and meat, making it a filling option that provides sustained energy. Additionally, vegetables add fiber, vitamins, and minerals to the dish. However, depending on the recipe, it can be high in saturated fats and sodium, particularly if processed meats or excessive cheese are included. Opting for lean proteins, reduced-fat cheese, and more vegetables can make it a healthier option. Often prepared ahead, it’s a convenient choice for busy mornings or feeding groups. Whether savory or slightly sweet with inclusions such as maple sausage, breakfast casserole celebrates comfort and versatility, adaptable to taste preferences and dietary needs.
