Bachelors Easy Casserole Recipes

BACHELOR'S EASY CASSEROLE

Steps:

• Peel potatoes and boil until fork tender. While potatoes are boiling, cook breakfast sausage in skillet, drain and set aside. Drain potatoes, add butter, milk, salt, and pepper, and beat until creamy.
• Combine all ingredients in layers (in clear glass loaf pan), with potatoes last and on top i.e.: sausage, then sauerkraut with a small amount of juice, diced Velveeta Cheese chunks until your loaf pan is almost full. Spread mashed potatoes on top until fully covered and smooth, this seals the dish.
• Bake on approx. (depending on oven) 375-400°F for approx 30-40 minutes, or until the mashed potatoes look crisp on top and you can see the cheese melted and the juice bubbling. Remove from oven and place more Velveeta cheese on top to melt. Let stand for approx. 15 minutes to set up and cool.

BAGEL BREAKFAST CASSEROLE

Steps:

• Position a rack in the center of the oven and preheat to 350 degrees F. Grease a 9-by-13-inch baking dish with butter or cooking spray.
• Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium high heat. Add the sausage and cook, breaking up any clumps with a wooden spoon, until brown, about 5 minutes; transfer to a bowl with a slotted spoon.
• Whisk together the milk, half-and-half, cayenne, eggs, 3/4 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper in a large bowl. Fold in the sausage, spinach, bagels and 3/4 cup of the provolone, then pour into the prepared baking dish. Dot the top with the cream cheese and sprinkle all over with the everything bagel seasoning and remaining provolone (see Cook's Note).
• Cover with foil and bake for 45 minutes. Uncover and bake until the casserole is puffed, golden brown at the edges and set in the center, about 45 minutes more. Let cool 15 minutes before serving.
