My Dad's 5-Ingredient Broccoli Casserole
Great for vegetarians and delicious for everyone, this creamy, cheesy, and crunchy casserole gets a boost from buttery breadcrumbs. A pinch of nutmeg may be optional, but Dad swears by it.
Sweet Potato and Apple Sausage Casserole
More like a hash then a traditional creamy casserole, this combination of apple sausage, sweet potato, and green apples brings sweet and savory together in just four ingredients (including honey mustard). Sweet Italian sausage is a great substitute.
Vegetarian Hash Brown Casserole
Take a classic casserole—made easy with a bag of frozen hash browns—and give it a bright brunch flavor with pico de gallo. This is also a great casserole to make ahead.
Vegetarian Potato and Squash Casserole
When four of the five ingredients are hearty vegetables, you know you’ve got a winning brunch combination. Feel free to substitute zucchini for either the squash or potatoes, based on your preference.
Broccoli Noodles and Cheese Casserole
Need a last-minute brunch dish? In 30 minutes, you’ve got a casserole with two cheeses to make it nice and bubbly. Want to add a protein? Add some chicken!
Simple Sausage Casserole
This 3-ingredient casserole with big breakfast flavor from sausage and cream cheese is made even easier by store-bought crescent roll dough; it can even be baked the night before. Cut and reheat portions and serve on a favorite platter for brunch.
