Giddy Up and Go Breakfast Cobbler is a savory breakfast casserole that features biscuits, eggs, sausage and plenty of cheese. It was named by my sons when they were younger and we loved it so much it stuck. Sausage, biscuits, eggs and cheese are a classic combination that shine in this delicious make-ahead dish.

Easy Giddy Up and Go Breakfast Cobbler Recipe

It’s probably apparent by the title that my little cowboys helped name this breakfast cobbler casserole. In it, I use a spicy sausage that will most definitely put a spring in your step to start your day or make a tasty addition to your “breakfast for dinner” menu. If you prefer a more gentle awakening, you can, of course, substitute the same amount with a milder breakfast sausage. I’ve made this dish using all eggs, and also a mixture of whole eggs and egg substitute, with equally delicious results. All the things you love for breakfast, served in a casserole.
