Instructions

Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Spray a 9 x 13-inch casserole dish with cooking spray.
In a 10-inch skillet over medium heat, crumble the sausage and cook, stirring frequently, for about 8 minutes until lightly browned.
While the sausage cooks, place the biscuits on the bottom of the pan, pressing and pinching them to form a crust with no holes and slightly reaching up the sides of the pan.
Drain any accumulated fat from the cooked sausage and sprinkle it over the biscuits. Top with the cheese(s). In a medium bowl, beat the eggs and then add the milk and spices. Gently pour into the dish and bake about 30 minutes until browned around the edges and set in the center.
Let stand 5 minutes before cutting into squares to serve.
