What Else Can I Add to This Breakfast Casserole?
This biscuits and gravy casserole is pretty perfect as is. However, you can always make it your own by sprinkling on some bacon bits, using turkey sausage instead of pork or adding some pepper jack cheese along with the cheddar. There are so many ways to get creative! If you try something different, make sure to drop a comment and let me know what worked for you!

Ingredient Notes for Biscuit and Gravy Casserole
Sausage Gravy – I have an excellent Sausage Gravy recipe that always gets the job done right. Feel free to change up this recipe by using Bacon Gravy instead if you’d like.
Biscuits – I like using Grands biscuits because they’re big and sturdy while still being fluffy.
Cheddar Cheese – If you have a few extra minutes to spare, I recommend using freshly shredded cheese for the best consistency and flavor. If not, no worries! Bagged shredded cheese works just fine.
Hot Sauce – This is an optional ingredient that I personally love adding to this breakfast casserole! Use your favorite brand and add more or less to control the spiciness.
Seasonings – Salt, black pepper, seasoned salt and a dash of hot sauce are what I use to create a little extra flavor. You can always toss in other seasonings like garlic powder, onion powder, or paprika if you’d like.
Enjoy!
