Sausage and egg casserole is mouth watering the kind of home cooking that just hits the spot. Family recipes and traditions are what we live for. Without special meals or gatherings, we would miss out on some really good times. Even better when you pair it with a Fine Wine from Napa Valley, California. This pairing is for Easter and my birthday, which happens every 5 years and tomorrow happens to be that special year, which is my birthday on March 31, 2024.
The first time I had this awesome Sausage , egg
cassarole was Christmas, 2018 when my granddaughter was born. My son Nathaniel and I flew to Alaska to stay with my son, his wife, and my new baby girl, Everly. That Christmas was my very first time in my life that I didn’t spend it with my mother, father, brothers, sister and grandma and aunts like I had done my entire life. It was now my time to start some family traditions of my own, and that is just what we did.
Carly, who is my oldest sons Wife and Everly’s mother. Her family had been making this cassarole as a family tradition every year for Christmas since she could remember. When we went to Alaska we had it for Christmas morning Breakfast and ate it throughout the entire day. It was amaing. Now ever since that day we have made it a new family tradition.
