Back to School Crockpot Breakfast
This Crockpot Breakfast Casserole is amazing for back to school. Prep the night ahead and turn the crockpot on when you go to bed, when you wake up in the morning it is ready to go!
We have even made it for holiday breakfasts when the entire family is up early and hungry! Crockpot Breakfast Casserole is also very forgiving. You can change it up to suit your families needs and tastes. Use turkey sausage, change up the cheeses, add some additional spices or veggies; play with this recipe and make it your own!
What Size Crockpot?
Before you start make sure you have the right size slow cooker for the job. This is a good sized recipe that will feed a crowd, or create some delicious left overs! I highly recommend at least a 6 quart Crockpot like this Hamilton Beach 6 Quart Slow Cooker.
You can also half this recipe very easily and make it in a 4 Quart Crockpot with no problems.
Reheating leftovers
I you have left overs you want to store them in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 5 days depending on the freshness of your ingredients. Just pop a plate of casserole in the microwave and heat it at 1 minute intervals at 60% power until it is at the desired heat.
This is also amazing reheated in a toaster oven at about 350 degrees for 10 minutes.

Where do you put the sausage? I assume in the layers but it isn't mentioned in the directions.
