Cheesy Egg White Breakfast Sausage Bake Recipe

Cheesy egg white sausage bake – casserole style

Nothing says, “good morning,” like eggs, sausage, and hash browns. This sausage egg bake is a classic big breakfast….in a casserole dish!

Easy breakfast recipes, like jalapeno corn bread bake, southwest frittata and turkey sweet potato hash, are my favorite for meal prep so that I have something to easily grab and go.

Egg whites, sausage, hash browns, and mozzarella cheese come together to make an egg breakfast casserole that’s great for meal prep, serving big families, or holiday gatherings.

Using egg whites and low-fat cheese reduces calories and fat but has the meaty goodness we expect from a sausage egg casserole. Feel free to add other veggies or shredded cheese. I went with red pepper, onions, and mozzarella but throw in what you love!

Dairy and gluten-free info

​This cheesy egg casserole is gluten-free if you use gluten-free hash browns or swap them out for potatoes or sweet potatoes. You’ll have to cook the potatoes prior to adding them to your casserole.

For dairy-free, omit the mozzarella cheese or sub for your favorite alternative. Keep in mind, that dairy-free cheese tends to melt differently, so may change the consistency of your dish. Or try this dairy-free egg casserole with turkey sausage for a tried and true recipe.
