This Make-Ahead Sausage Casserole is a lifesaver for busy mornings. Hearty layers of seasoned sausage, golden hashbrowns, and mildly spicy green chiles are topped with melted cheddar and a creamy egg custard. While it can be baked right away, assembling it the night before is where it truly shines—allowing the flavors to meld and the potatoes to absorb the custard so breakfast is effortless and stress-free.
