Add a photoThis Overnight Breakfast Casserole with Sausage and Spinach is perfect for company or for a lovely brunch. With a little bit of work the night before you can have a very special breakfast on the table without being in the kitchen all morning. So enjoy that extra cup of coffee with your guests or family as breakfast is cooking. This Breakfast Casserole is rich with sausage and mozzarella cheese but also contains the healthy addition of spinach. It would be lovely served with a fresh fruit salad and maybe even Bloody Mary's!
