This recipe is one of those which reminds me of home. It reminds me of sleepover breakfasts, youth choir practice, and lazy Saturday mornings. It’s a delicious bite of a cheesy, savory, and convenient sausage biscuit.
Food H & P:
2 ½ cups of Bisquick
1 pound of sausage, browned and drained
2 eggs, well-beaten
¾ cup of milk
½ cup of mayonnaise
4 oz shredded Pepper Jack cheese
4 oz shredded Cheddar cheese
Food Rx:
Mix until well-blended. Pour into a greased 9×13 pan and bake at 325 degrees about 30 minutes or until the top is just starting to brown.
This recipe can be mixed the night before and baked in the morning. Usually when I make this I place the dough in muffin tins lined with cupcake liners and bake (this usually makes around 18 muffins). I then freeze the sausage bread muffins to have a quick and filling early morning treat. It just takes about a 45 second microwave reheat then it’s ready to enjoy (microwaving with a damp paper towel on top makes it extra moist). Sausage bread is wonderful just the way it is; however, I always enjoy mine with jelly or syrup on top.
Speaking of lazy Saturdays, while working in the ER I became shocked at the astronomical number of requests for work excuses. Sunday nights tend to be the busiest, in my opinion the yearning for an extended weekend. I continue to be amazed at some requests. There are patients that will wait hours for the coveted slip of paper for seemingly trivial complaints. Multiple ER staffs I have been a part of joke saying that if a 10 dollar charge for an excuse could be offered before a patient checks in would guarantee a smoother night (and a substantial profit)! The length of time that is requested for the excuse to admit off for can also be surprising. I’ve had patients ask for the week before the ER visit and 2 weeks after for cold like symptoms! Word of advice be nice to your ER staff because they determine your work excuse. I may have been guilty of only allotting the time a patient was in the ER on the excuse…
