Easy Asiago Cheese Italian Sausage Strata Recipe

I adore make-ahead casseroles. Weekday breakfasts are far more harried then weekends so, that’s when we enjoy these sorts of brunch dishes. They’re perfection for planning special holiday breakfasts in advance that allows the host to enjoy the get together, too. For an evening meal, bake it while you unwind or help the kids with homework, then you’ll have a filling “brinner” waiting for you when you’re ready to eat. A filling sausage, egg and cheese casserole breakfast casserole and make-ahead cinnamon roll casserole are two of our favorites that are super simple to make. Also, if you love the robust flavor of Asiago cheese checkout this recipe for Asiago Cheese Bread from Taste of Lizzy. How to make this Easy Sausage Strata:

How to Make the Best Asiago Cheese Italian Sausage Strata

Kitchen tools you’ll need: A 13 x 9 inch baking dish (deep), cheese grater, measuring cups and spoons, large bowl, sharp knife and cutting board, whisk and rubber spatula.
You can use mild (sweet) or spicy Italian sausage for this recipe.
How to assemble this overnight breakfast strata: When assembling the strata, start with half of the cubed bagels, half of the crumbled sausage and half of the Asiago cheese forming the bottom layer of the dish, then repeat.

This recipe is designed to be made with bagels. If you need to make a change, choose a bread with a similar dense texture for the best results. A hard French bread baguette would work in the same amount.
Asiago cheese has a distinct flavor. You can substitute with Gruyere, if preferred.
