I never leave reviews
by Jon 7 months agoOk I never leave a review. But this is nasty. And I can usually add something to turn a recipe around.
If I started over. Cut cilantro by half and omit the green chilies. Add more cheese.
FANTASTIC!!!
by Teresa 1 year agoMy daughter has made this "ready in the morning" recipe every Christmas for the past 4 years. It is so delicious, everyone wants seconds. I will be bringing it for a friends' Brunch Gathering for Mother's Day (for all of us Grandmas whose children now live out of town).
I know it will be a big it, as this is a 'no fail' dish that everyone loves!!!!!
Oh so yummy
by Pattie Pitoscia 3 years agoLooking forward to making this oh so yummy breakfast when my out of town company comes in 2 weeks!
Not Worth the Trouble
by Dave Zobrist 3 years agoThis is just awful. Ends up looking and tasting like a rice casserole - and not a very good one at that. Don't waste your time.
Love it
by Jake 3 years agothis is an easy to make breakfast that everyone in the house loves. We're a family of four and this could've fed our neighbors as well!
Excellent breakfast casserole
by Catherine 3 years agoEveryone loved it, it was easy and delicious!
was not impressed
by mike 3 years ago8 hours on low was way to long. dried out and crusty top edges. i think adding country style gravy to the ingredient list would make a big improvement on this dish and I will try adding that next time. but overall i was extremely disappointed in the way this came out following the recipe
Office Hit!
by Kim 3 years agoI brought this for an office breakfast Christmas party. It was so nice to have it cook over night & be hot & ready in the morning. It was easy to serve & was a big hit! A few people even asked for the recipe. I used the regular Johnsonville links instead of the maple ones just because it was my preference. I will be making this again! :)
Family favorite
by Gail T 4 years agoI've made this recipe twice for visiting family members. It was a big hit both times. I substitute the pre-cooked Johnsonville sausage and use the original flavor instead of the maple flavored. Other than that, I go by the recipe. I cook mine for 8 hours. It turns out well.
Wow what a Hit!
by Stella 3 years agoI needed to come up with a recipe I could serve to our book club at work, but we don't get together until 10:00 a.m. and we don't have a stove at work. This casserole was fabulous and a hit with everyone. It was easy to assemble, cooked while I slept and I carried my crockpot of deliciousness with me to work in the early hours and kept it warm until time to eat. I'm planning to cutting the recipe in half in the smaller crockpot for this Sunday after church and can't wait to use the large crockpot again to make the full recipe for our full family the morning after a get holiday or other family together!!
Why such a big portion of eggs?
by Mr. Magoo 4 years agoWho normally uses 12 eggs for breakfast? Thats good for a crowd but not for a family of two or four.
Comment by Don 3 years ago
How does it taste? That is what will apply when rating a recipe. What is wrong with just cutting the recipe in half or 1/4 to meet your needs. Also, you can freeze eggs and warm them up later. Better yet, just invite a few friends over to share in a great meal.
Comment by Ken Davis 3 years ago
You could cut the amount of all ingredients accordingly, depending on number of people you are preparing it for.
Comment by CO 3 years ago
That's why they give the number of servings on the recipe!! You can cut a recipe down you know. I've tasted this recipe and it's delicious. It's better to rate a food product on it's taste not the fact that it's too big for your family!
Comment by Merita Young 3 years ago
We are a family of 2 and I would use 12 eggs. I don't like to cook, so leftovers are a big hit with me.
Slow Cooker Overnight Casserole
by Lori Schroht 4 years agoIt was Excellent...easy to make the night before and just plug in..We fed 6 adults with the recipe and still had some left over. I made it again for Easter Brunch and it was a hit again.
Comment by ande 3 years ago
How long did it take to heat up and did you heat it on low or high?
Comment by jeanette 3 years ago
would this work with veggie sausage links substitute... i'd like to share with my non meat eaters.
Comment by Doreen Valle 3 years ago
Can I double this recipe for a breakfast party at work?
Yummy Goodness
by tameala weltman 4 years agoI have made this for my family many times . It is always a hit around christmas.
excellent anniversary breakfast
by tabatha little 5 years agoOmg I made this for my break fast on my anniversary. My husband and I enjoyed it so much. Cannot wait to serve it for Sunday brunch with friends and family.
Comment by Carla 4 years ago
I want to make this for my master swim team and families after our annual 10K. I need it to be ready by 9:30-10am. I can have my husband start the crock late the night before, but wondering how exact is the the 8 hours? Do I need to start the crock pot at 2AM or is midnight alright?
Freezes Well
by Birdwatcher 5 years agoThere are 4 of us so 12 servings is a bit much. I did freeze it and warmed up in microwave and it was just fine. Also keep well in refrig for 4 or 5 days.
Smaller servings
by Sabine 5 years agoI know it tastes great, made it for work, but I would love to change servings. We are only a family of 4, no need for me to cook it for 12.
Super Easy
by april 5 years agoLoved this recipe! It is very flavorful and super easy for a busy mom!
Perfect holiday casserole
by Fauna Renee 5 years agoThis is the perfect thing for a wife and mother who works full time!
Perfect Breakfast Casserole
by Lori T 5 years agoI made this for New Year's Breakfast. Everyone loved it. Very filling and satisfying
Love it!
by Patty 6 years agoI make it every year for Christmas eve morning (& sometimes in-between). My family looks forward to this casserole every year.
Incredibly tasty and easy
by Michael 6 years agoI made this recipe for the first time for a work pot-luck breakfast. I assembled everything the night before, which was super easy by the way; I tweaked the recipe and used some hatch green chilis and 2 whole bunches of green onions. Also, I increased the eggs and milk as it didn't seem "wet" enough. Eveyone loved this recipe and thought it was delicious, it had a great flavor and texture. Can serve with salsa and sour cream on the side for an extra treat! Will definitely make this again.
Very disappointed!
by Debbie 6 years agoWas really excited to try this recipe. Unfortunately, our whole family was kept awake all night because of the odor of it emanating from our crock pot! When we woke up in the a.m., the cheese on top had actually burned, and we had to open every window in our house (in mid-January!) to get rid of the smell. No one really wanted to even eat it in the a.m., after having smelled it cooking/burning the entire night. Ended up throwing most of it in the garbage! What a disappointment!
Comment by Elizabeth 6 years ago
Your crockpot is probably too hot...I've had this happen with two crockpots over the years, and both were given to me as gifts. I found that the actual crock needs to be very heavy or they burn food when a recipe calls for 7 or 8 hours. Very frustrating indeed when you think your meal will be ready and waiting, but instead it's burned. I use the top of the line Hamilton Beach crockpot. Worth the money to me because I work and use the crockpot several times a week!
Comment by Linda Monroe 6 years ago
Did you have the crockpot on high? I have made this before and it has never burned like you say it did.
Breakfast That Goes All Night!
by Eric Raines 7 years agoWent to the in-laws on the eve of Thanksgiving and I put this together in the crock pot for breakfast on Thanksgiving morning. I woke up at 3am and immediately smelled breakfast; went back to bed and got up in the morning to the thoughts of a delicious breakfast featuring Johnsonville sausage being cooked for the family. Everyone in the house thoroughly enjoyed this. The store only had the original recipe Johnsonville sausage, so didn't get the hot and spicy but it was still good. I wanted a little heat so I topped mine with a little sriracha sauce and it gave it the kick I was looking for. Definitely will be making this again!
Great overnight recipe!
by Ashley Arrington 7 years agoDelicious casserole! Whole family enjoyed!!!
EASIEST MORNING EVER !!!!
by rachel lopez 7 years agoFor us, this recipe started as an experiment. I thought it couldn't be possible to simply wake up and have a delicious hot breakfast waiting for my family without any effort what-so-ever. I was happily mistaken. It was easy to prepare and make subsitutions needed for my super picky kids. Very little effort or clean up. The smell woke them all up hungry and ready for the day. I used a crockpot liner and clean up was a breeze. This was a great idea and I wish we had found it sooner. We have also tried it with a little salsa and / or hot sauce, we also used some warmed up flour tortillas for a change up. Taking this concept camping to put in the campfire cook pot !!!!
Everyone needs to try this, it's easy and fabutastic !!!!! #lovedit
