Cajun Crock Pot Breakfast Casserole + Jalapeno Cheese Biscuits

Here's an easy Cajun breakfast casserole that is assembled the night before and cooked to perfection in your crock pot while you sleep. It's especially nice if you want to sleep in and then any early risers in the family can help themselves. Or it also goes perfectly on a brunch buffet, and it can be made with only one type of meat, or any combination of the three that I have used here. And it can also be made without meat, for the vegetarians in your house. When I tell you that it's out of this world, then you know that I mean it, cher! Bon appetit!

Cajun Crock Pot Breakfast Casserole

1 bag frozen hash brown potatoes
1/2 lb. of cooked bacon,  crumbled
1/2 lb. cooked ham, cubed
1/2 lb. cooked Andouille sausage, sliced
1 medium onion, diced

1 green bell pepper, diced

1 or 2 jalapeno peppers, diced
1/2 cup green onions, sliced

1 (1/2) cups of a combo of shredded cheddar and Swiss or Monterey Jack cheese

1 dozen eggs
1 cup milk
1 tsp. salt
1/2 tsp. cayenne pepper

1/2 tsp. garlic powder

Spray a 3 (1/2) to 4 quart crock pot with cooking spray. Begin with a layer of hash browns, then meat, onions, peppers, cheese, and green onions. Repeat, ending with green onions.

Beat the eggs, milk, and seasonings together. Pour over the crock pot mixture, cover and turn on low. Cook for 10-12 hours. Enjoy! Divine!

Serve with these sinfully delicious,  jalapeno cheese biscuits, adapted from the Junior League of Houston. Fab!

Jalapeno Cheese Biscuits

2 cups all-purpose flour
2 tbs.'s sugar
1/4 tsp. salt
1/4 tsp. cayenne pepper
1 tbs. baking powder
1/2 cup (1 stick cold unsalted butter)
1 jalapeno, seeded and chopped
3/4 cup shredded Cheddar cheese
1 1/4 cups heavy whipping cream

Spray a baking sheet with cooking spray. Sift the dry ingredients into a mixing bowl. Cut the butter in 1/2-inch pieces. Using your fingertips, rub the butter and flour mixture together until it resembles a coarse meal; add the jalapenos and cheese. Add the cream and mix with your hands. When barely combined, turn out onto a lightly floured board and knead just enough to bring the dough together. Roll out to a 1-inch thickness. Cut with a floured 1 1/2- to 2-inch cutter. Arrange in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Bake in a preheated 375 degree oven, in the center of the oven, for 10 to 12 minutes or until golden. Yum!
