EXPERT TIPS

Expert Tips

Use either link or bulk Italian sausage in this recipe. Slice link sausage into 1/2-inch pieces before cooking.

Sourdough bread gets its tangy flavor and moist crumb from an aged yeast starter. Use sourdough or another firm-textured bread for this dish.

For added color, top servings with heated marinara sauce.

Really great family breakfast dish, will definitely make this one again. The recipe is good as it is, next time I'm going to try adding a little green pepper and maybe a few halved grape tomatoes. Family approved!
