Preparation

Step 1

Step 1 Heat oven to 350°F. Spray 13x9-inch (3-quart) baking dish with cooking spray. In 8-inch nonstick skillet, cook sausage over medium-high heat 5 to 7 minutes, stirring frequently, until no longer pink; drain.


2 Remove pouch of vegetables from box. Place pouch, printed side up, on microwavable plate. Do not cut slit in pouch. Microwave on high about 2 minutes or until just thawed. In large bowl, beat eggs and milk with whisk. Stir in potatoes, cooked sausage, vegetables, 1 cup of the cheese and 1 tablespoon of the basil. Pour into baking dish. Bake now, or cover and refrigerate up to 12 hours.

3 Bake 60 to 65 minutes, uncovered, until center is set. Sprinkle with remaining cheese during last 5 minutes of bake time. Sprinkle with remaining basil just before serving.
