Can you replace the sausage with bacon or another protein?

Yes, you can switch up the protein, as long as what you choose is fully cooked! You’re really only baking the meat in this recipe long enough to warm it through. Fully cooked sausage patties, cubed ham, or bacon all work well. If you're going the bacon route, try one of these recipes for air fryer bacon or oven-cooked bacon, or just fry it in a skillet on the stove the old-fashioned way! Serve it on the side with the sheet pan breakfast or crumble it over the top.

Can you make sheet pan sausage, egg, and hash brown breakfast ahead of time?

This breakfast is best served just after it comes out of the oven so the hash browns are crisp and the eggs are perfectly cooked. If you want to get ahead, you can chop the kale and slice the onion a day or two in advance and store them in separate air-tight containers in the fridge. Make sure the sausage is thawed and ready to go, too.

If you have leftovers, they can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to three days and reheated in the microwave or in a 350-degree Fahrenheit oven until warmed through. For the best results, store your leftovers without the eggs and crack fresh eggs on top when reheating.
