"My friend Jen brought a similar recipe to a work function once and I loved it! Of course, she could not find the recipe she used, but we found this one and it is very close. This is a bit more interesting in texture than your normal breakfast casserole! Active prep. time does not include chill time. Enjoy!!"

Being the Jen she speaks of who brought this reciepe and then lost it...I do remember one major change! My original recipe called or 12 waffles. So, I usually toast 12 waffles and then cut or break them into chuncks. 6 on each layer. It takes away from any runniness at all. I also increase the sausage to 1 1/2 lbs, and add the syrup when cookiing the sausage so that I has that sweet taste! I love it and make it again last night to share with my dd and Carrie in Indiana!

This was great! Love using waffles instead of the normal cubed bread. I read the reviews and increased the waffles and sausage. Instead of maple syrup, I used maple breakfast sausage. I was concerned that it didn't call for salt, but the sausage and cheese definitely had it seasoned well.

This is a great casserole! Made for our weekly breakfast for dinner night. I made 1/2 the recipe with 1/2 lb sausage, 6 waffles, 3 eggs, 1 cup milk and just eyeballed the cheese. To serve, we drizzled warm maple syrup on it. Will be making this again. Made for All You Can Cook Buffet Game.

Yummy! Waffles do give this casserole a slightly different texture. I used frozen buttermilk waffles and there was a lot of liquid in the dish, so probably could have used more, maybe 8. Skipped the maple syrup, just didn't appeal to me with eggs, sausage, and cheese. With fresh fruit, this makes an easy and delicious breakfast. Thanks for sharing the recipe!

This was a nice tasting casserole and liked the idea of the waffles instead of bread cubes. I used buttermilk waffles, mild sausage, and added some lemon pepper. I baked mine for an hour and did serve with a side of maple syrup. Next time I think I will use a bit more cheese. Made and reviewed for Pick a Chef 2010.

Greeting from South Bend, Indiana (home of Notre Dame and the Studebaker). My Grandmother got me interested in cooking at a young age. On my own, I would have cooked a lot more, but cooking for one was always such a hassle. Now that I am married, my husband enjoys the home-cooked dishes. Some hobbies of mine include: scrapbooking, photography and many activites outdoors (golfing, camping, hiking and beach volleyball), surfing the internet, and browsing through cookbooks of course! <br><br>NEW INFO: My DH and I had a baby girl in February. Abigail makes our family complete!
