This 5-Ingredient Breakfast Casserole Recipe Is Talkin' Turkey by Erin Smith
The company of loved ones is the key to a successful gathering. Finding time to put phones away and chat and laugh with the people who mean the most is the best way to end my week. Try this comfort breakfast casserole recipe at your next family gathering. It is quick, has minimal ingredients and cooks in 30 minutes.
The simple five-ingredient breakfast casserole is made with lean ground turkey, protein-rich eggs, cheddar cheese, jumbo refrigerated biscuits and onion. The biscuits are placed on the bottom of a glass baking dish and cooked according to can directions. While the biscuits bake in the oven, cook the ground turkey and onion in a skillet until browned and cooked through. Put the cooked turkey on top of the baked biscuits, then top with the grated cheddar cheese. Scramble the eggs and put them on top of the cheese. Top with more grated cheese and bake until lightly browned on top.
You could add crisp cooked bacon, breakfast sausage or ham to this casserole or serve it on the side. If you love vegetables, layer some crisp-tender broccoli, red peppers, mushrooms or spinach on top.
