Ingredients | Overnight English Muffins

1 pound ground country sausage

4 English muffins, halved and torn into bite-sized pieces

1 cup diced onion

1 cup diced bell pepper

1 cup shredded Cheddar cheese

8 eggs, beaten

1 ¼ cups milk

Cook ground sausage in a large skillet over medium-high heat, stirring often, until browned and cooked through, about 5 minutes. Drain excess grease.

Spread torn English muffin pieces along the bottom of a 9x13 baking dish. Layer cooked sausage, onions, bell peppers, and Cheddar cheese over English muffin pieces.

Combine eggs, milk, basil, and pepper in a bowl; whisk until well combined. Pour egg mixture into the baking dish. Gently press down on top of the casserole mixture with a spatula. Cover and refrigerate 8 hours to overnight.

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
