Instructions

- Pour the egg mixture into the baking pan. Top everything with the remaining 1/2 cup cheddar cheese.

- If you dont like sausage, you can swap it out for bacon, ham, or omit the meat completely
- You can assemble this up to 12 hours before baking it and keep it in the fridge until you are ready to bake it
- Store leftovers covered in the fridge for up to 3 days, or freeze for up to 3 months.
