Crunchy Sausage Casserole image

From a 1981 Southern Living edition. Yummy for breakfast or dinner. I prefer it without the ground beef. Think ahead if you choose to refrigerate overnight. You may bake this without refrigerating overnight; bake, uncovered, at 300 degrees for 20 minutes or until hot. I like a little green pepper in mine too. Consider using spicy sausage or adding in some cayenne and garlic. Great on a breakfast buffet.
