Variations & Tips
For a spicier kick, try using hot Italian sausage or adding a pinch of red pepper flakes to the sausage mixture. If you’re looking to add more veggies, consider mixing in some sautéed mushrooms or bell peppers. For a different flavor profile, you could substitute the pork sausage with turkey sausage or even a plant-based sausage for a vegetarian option. If you’re short on time, you can prepare the sausage mixture the night before and store it in the fridge, then assemble and bake the casserole the next day.
