SAUSAGE CHEESE BREAKFAST HOT DISH

Steps:

• Brown the sausage and drain. (If using the Crumbles, you don't need to brown them). Pour into the bottom of a greased 13x9 pan. Sprinkle the cheese over the sausage.
• Beat the eggs. Add 2 ½ cups of the milk and mix well. Pour over the sausage and cheese mixture. Top with the croutons. Refrigerate overnight.
• Next morning, preheat oven to 300°. Mix together the cream of mushroom soup, mustard and the ½ cup of milk, and pour over the top of the casserole.
• Bake for 1 ½ hours at 300°.
• * Psssst - sometimes I cheat and use Jimmy Dean Sausage Crumbles if I decide I want to make this at the last minute (late the night before). I use 3 bags (9 oz each).

BUSY DAY HOTDISH

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Butter a 9-by-13-inch glass or ceramic baking dish.
• Heat a medium Dutch oven over medium heat. Add the butter, and once it melts, add the beef and sprinkle with 1 teaspoon salt. Cook, crumbling with a wooden spoon, until browned, 4 to 5 minutes. Add the bell pepper and scallions (saving a handful of the greens for garnish) and cook until the vegetables begin to wilt, 2 to 3 minutes. Add the paprika and several grinds of pepper, then stir to coat the beef in the spices. Stir in the corn.
• Sprinkle the flour over the beef and stir to incorporate. Cook and stir until the flour begins to toast, about 2 minutes. Add the broth and cream gradually while stirring. Bring to a simmer and cook until the sauce thickens, 3 to 4 minutes. Stir in the parsley, mustard, dill and thyme. Pour the mixture into the prepared baking dish. Arrange the curly fries in a tight layer over the top. Sprinkle with the cheese. Bake until the cheese and fries are crispy and the sauce is bubbly, about 40 minutes. Sprinkle with the reserved scallion greens and serve hot.
