So easy and it is crazy good!!

You ever get in the mood for  breakfast but at dinner time, well since our kids are grow and out of the house we cook what we want anytime  We did cook what we wanted when they were young now they pretty much eat anything, not afraid of new or different.  We are big on mushrooms, onions and garlic,.  No Vamps living in my neighborhood, we pretty much IV it around here if it is not minced it is powdered or salt.  Well as usual I have digressed from the wonderful upgraded at least for us Week-End Biscuit Egg Casserole, I found it on pinterest of course and it has been eaten here 2 times already.  We will now let you know our version if you are an  onion, garlic and mushroom kinda eater, you will enjoy this spin on it.  If not that is okay too that is why it is called a recipe and you do with it as you will to suit yourself.
The recipe is as follows with my additions and changes,
1st we did use the grands biscuits from the can
mashed them into the 8x8, but tonight we used a 10 x 8 pan because the first time we made it, it looked like it was going to come on out.  Well this pan worked well so this will be the pan of the future.
next we not only used turkey sausage (Jimmy Dean cooked and crumbled)  best sausage flavor yet in a sausage made from the bird...  Had Jenny O one time and the that was it not enough spice sort of bland.
! medium onion chopped and a small can of mushrooms chopped while I was browning the onion, also lest we forget the garlic 1 tablespoon of minced, we cheated tonight and used the kind in the jar.  Anyway still no vamps in my neighborhood.   We used 5 eggs beaten with 1/4 milk
preheat oven to 425 egress and set timer for 30 minutes
1. biscuits mashed in to bottom of pan no seams allowed which is really hard to do just like any refrigerator biscuit there is some special thing about them that makes them not join together in a seamless manner.
2. sausage 1 lb cooked crumbled and cooled (since mine comes from freezer usually heat it a bit so not to slow down biscuit rising part
3.  Cooked med onion and small can mushrooms with garlic (what amount you like or not) thrown in for good measure...
4  5 eggs with  1/4 cup milk scrambled

Assembly biscuits in bottom, sausage mixture of onions, garlic, mushrooms, then pour eggs over all this.  According to the original recipe Lindsay had used 1 cup of Mozzarella and 1 cup cheddar which we do not not big on cheeses breakfast or with biscuits.  BUT WE DO LOVE SAUSAGE GRAVY.......Not the kind that takes time to make but Pioneer in a bag from the mix area of the grocery store 2 cups of water them mix and your cooking like Hardies but without having to get in your car and drive over.    After baking let it stand for 5 minutes this lets the eggs firm up and gets everything to meld.  Cut it into what  I call biscuit size chunks and devour.  Gravy of course spooned over and you get that rib sticking morning thing or that evening dinner thing that makes you glad you have an oven.
