For an easy, fast and healthy biscuits n gravy breakfast recipe, look no further – this Biscuits and Gravy Bake is the answer. It’s got biscuits, golden eggs, rich sausage gravy, and melted cheese. And all that for only 7 Freestyle Points/8 Smart Points per serving!
I am a total breakfast lover! I also love brunch. And I also love brinner! Brinner, aka brupper… Is that a thing? I guess it is now! Seriously, I have shirts that say ‘Make Me Breakfast’ and ‘Pancake Queen.’ Breakfast is my jam! And most nutritionists and diet experts will all tell you it’s the most important meal of the day.
This Biscuits and Gravy Bake is SO GOOD… every single time I eat it, it feels like I’m cheating. I’m telling you, it’s a dream! In fact, it’s so delicious, I’m 90% sure you’ll re-check the points and/or calories because you won’t believe me. But believe me, I have double- and triple-checked the points myself… I swear it’s the real deal!
Fear not, my friends. This is The Skinnyish Dish – I promise, if you stick with me and my recipes, I’ll never lead you astray.
Now I’m totally new to this blogging world, so please – BEAR WITH ME! I don’t know how far this will go, but I’ll try to post new recipes weekly, or as much as I possibly can.

This was so simple and so delicious!! I will be making this again and plan on having this as our Christmas brunch meal from now on. Thank you
This is delish! I love everything about this recipe. It is easy to make, low in WW points and my kids even like it! I am definitely going to make this again and freeze individual pieces to take to work with me. Thank you!
Hi Star!!!
I just want you to know my family loves this recipe. I can make it every week and they wouldn’t complain. . The leftovers warm up so well, is super easy to whip up, very flavorful, and is a crowd pleaser. Thanks for such a tasty and easy go to recipe.
This was the first recipe I found from the skinnyishdish and it is my go-to recipe! My entire fam, including those picky kiddos, LOVE this recipe. Sometimes we add to the gravy to mix up the flavors with paprika or red pepper flakes, but this is now a staple of our home!
I always make this when I have a breakfast potluck at work and I never come home with leftovers (unfortunately). My coworkers always rave about how good this is and I don’t mind making it because the prep is super easy and it’s so delicious!
A family favorite. Thank you for sharing your goodness with us.
Made this tonight…so good!! The gravy makes it I cooked the sausage in advance so I just threw it all together. Kid approved
Always a hit at our house. Easy to make. Not fancy ingredients—just staples. Love it!
I’m so happy you love it! Thank you for stopping back to leave a rating and letting me know how ya liked it!
My husband is soooo hard to please because he thinks any WW recipe is boring and doesn’t taste good. He had thirds of this last night! Thank you for bringing us these recipes!
This is one of my first recipes I made from the skinnyishdish. Me and my husband love it!!! And it’s so easy. @macygreypowell
I make this all the time. The kids love it. I love it. Delicious breakfast food (but I usually make it for dinner)!! (Instagram: @drtoryg)
This is such a yummy breakfast bake for the family! I love how it has all my breakfast favorites & is easy to make! We have it at least once a week & the leftovers don’t last long! 🙂 My Instagram: Twinsister198717

I cannot rave about this recipe enough. It is a Sunday breakfast staple in my household. Since starting Weight Watchers 3 months ago I was dreading plain eggs and turkey sausage as my breakfast routine. I found this on accident and have been making it ever since. It is the perfect combination of southern comfort feed meets guilt-free tastiness. Absolutely delectable. If you haven’t tried this yet, please do. You won’t regret it. Star, you have outdone yourself again! Thank you for this!

This comment makes me so happy. No one should ever eat ONLY plain eggs and turkey sausage every single day unless they LOVE plain eggs and turkey sausage every day. I’m so happy you found me and this recipe!
It’s hard to choose a favorite recipe of yours but it would have to be this or the chicken bacon bubble up! This breakfast bake has become a Christmas morning tradition. The whole family loves it!

This is my favorite breakfast casserole! It is so filling and still WW points friendly. My favorite part is how good it is leftover and reheated. It is so simple to make on a weeknight for dinner!
Insta: @curveballsandcupcakes
My first, most-repeated and most-shared recipe from Star! So creamy and filling. Loved by my entire family.
This is one of my all time favorite recipes! I always make it for house guests and they think I’m a pro! @kim_possible_2.0
Favorite meal prep breakfast for my husband and I! Truly delicious
This is my absolute favorite breakfast casserole!! I’ve made it so many times. The first rime I made it, I took it to Church for my small group. It was definitely a big hit!! Everyone raved about it!!
This is my new favorite breakfast food. I don’t even like eggs, but I’m glad I gave it a try! Love!! @Manna911
This is amazing.
thank you!
This is a great make ahead for meal prep. I have used it for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. So yummy!!! Thanks Star
Would it work to make this recipe with real eggs instead of egg beaters?
Yes! This is the way I make it. I use 7 or 8 eggs.
If you use real eggs do the points change?
Whole eggs will change the points only on the Green Plan, but on purple and blue plan it will not. You may also use egg whites in the carton, super good!
This is amazing!!! This recipe is a staple in my house. Star I do have a question, how much sausage would I use if I wanted to use the Jimmy Dean Turkey Sausage crumbles? I know it would change the points, I just wanted to make sure I had the right amount of sausage.
Hi! Use 8 ounches cooked turkey sausage crumbles. I believe the points are the same, but I can’t remember for sure!
This was the first Skinnyish dish I’ve made and definitely won’t be the last. It’s so easy to make and so delicious. You can’t be that!
I can’t wait to try other recipes.
I cannot recommend this recipe enough! I mean, my husband, who does not follow WW asks me to make it every week, even when it’s not apart of the our meal plan!!! Don’t sleep on this one folks!
How many biscuits do you use in this recipe? The other one that I recently made of yours that was amazing used 15. Just want to make sure I use the correct amount before I try this yummy recipe!!
I tried this recipe for the first time a few weeks ago. Delicious! My husband loved it and so did I. He even said the leftovers were better. He looked at me and said “this is awesome”. We loved it so much that I gave the recipe to my mom. She made it and both of my parents loved it!
This is a family favorite! It’s become Christmas breakfast for my extended family and the dish I have to drop off if anyone’s sick. I can’t imagine life without it!
Awesome recipe! Made this morning as a meal prep for the week! Made maple roasted brussels sprouts and carrots to go along with it…sweet to go with the savory…so yummy! definitely a keeper for meal rotation!
oooo the maple roasted brussles sound amazing!!
This is my absolute favorite breakfast dish! So easy to throw together, and it’s so filling and delicious. Comfort food at its best. I have made this several times to share at breakfast potlucks with my coworkers and they all rave about it as well. It’s also just as good leftover as it is the day of!
SO tasty, and very easy! A top recipe in this house!
Love this recipe but then again I love all of her recipes. Tastes so good and keeps me on track! Keep doingbwhat you’re are doing! You’re an amazing blessing.
This is so good! I make it A LOT!
I wish I was able to give more than 5 stars because this is lights out the absolute BEST BREAKFAST BAKE IN THE WORLD. I’ve made this atleast 40 times this year (no exaggeration and I HATE EGGS) it’s always incredible. It’s a staple in this house and every single brunch I attend I bring it made pop it in the oven to reheat and WOW ABSOLUTE PERFECTION Total crowd pleaser and awesome macros! Keep doing BIG things Star. Your recipes are amazing!
This is the best review ever. Thanks so much, Kay! So glad you enjoy it so much. You’re the best!
Its a recipe that like to try with other people and ALWAYS get asked to share
That makes me so happy!!
My family loves this. One of the best breakfast baked I’ve ever made!
Thank you! So happy y’all enjoy it!!
Oh my goodness–this was so good! I was skeptical as I was making it since the layering of the eggs and sausage gravy looked kind of soupy but once I pulled it out of the oven, I knew it was going to be a winner! I wasn’t able to find the same pack size of biscuits so I used the 6 oz. package and the fully-cooked turkey sausage crumbles. Added everything into the WW recipe builder and came to the same amount of points. Can’t wait to have this for breakfast for the rest of the week!
I make this recipe every single time I have overnight guests and it is 100% the conversation of the day! Nobody ever knows it’s a skinny-ish recipe and everyone wants to make it as soon as they get home! Slam dunk. I make it so frequently for myself and my husband at home. He usually isn’t a fan of repeat meals, but he NEVER complains if this is the move!
YES!!
Star – I have been following you for a while and making many of your wonderful recipes. This one however – Oh My Gosh – it’s unbelievable! I have NEVER commented on a recipe before, but I just had to let you know how much we enjoyed this one. I know it’s older, and noticed that you had also posted it on DrizzleMeSkinny’s site, so I thought you’d enjoy a little (current) shout out about it. Only thing I did differently was to dice up some leftover Turkey Breakfast Sausage Patties (from DrizzleMeSkinny) instead of cooking turkey sausage. Felt so good combining 2 great recipes and giving leftovers new life. THANK YOU for doing what you do! I truly appreciate it!!
Stop what you are doing and make this right now! It is so darn good!
I made this on Sunday to have during the week for breakfast before work. Slices reheat beautifully in the microwave and the portion is huge!
This is definitely going to be in the permanent rotation at my house, and will probably be used for holiday gatherings too.
Love love loved this. I’d never used a packet seasoning for country gravy but it was perfect in this. My kids liked it too!
Beyond delish! A new family favorite!!!
Hi Star! We make your recipes at home often but this is hands down one of our faves! We keep this in our fridge almost weekly. Once we finish one pan, we then make another. It’s the perfect breakfast for my husband to take to work and for me to pop in the microwave (in home daycare provider). Just wanted to hop on here and say thank you so much for all the time you put into your recipes and thank you for sharing them with us!
Oh Stephanie! Thank you so much for taking a minute to stop by here and let me know. I’m sure you’ve got your hands full with having a home daycare! I hope it’s made your mornings much more delicious and a lot easer. =)
Hi Star, made this dish this morning and it was AMAZING! I couldn’t find the right size for the biscuits so I used the one that has 8 buttermilk biscuits and it turned out perfect. I’m going to try your suggestion for freezing, I have to get it out of the refrigerator so I don’t eat more of it. LOL. Thanks for all you do so we can eat delicious, healthy dishes. It makes our weight lost journey so much easier.
How many eggs do you think would equal what you use in egg beaters?
I use 7-8 whole eggs
I made this this morning but used leftover breakfast casserole instead of egg beater. I cut it into tiny pieces and dropped over the biscuits. I also added 1/2 cup of the precooked turkey breakfast sausage. It was really good. I’ll have to calculate points. I’m thinking it’s still around 8. My casserole made 8 portions.

I made this recipe today and it was really good! I like that you get all the yummy biscuits and gravy flavor without it sitting super heavy in your stomach (if that makes sense). I would definitely make this again!
Just made this recipe this morning and it’s so good! I didn’t have cheddar cheese so I used light mozzarella and it tasted great! Will absolutely make again. I also love the portion size. Thank you!
I want to make this so bad!! But I can’t find that sausage anywhere!!!
Hey there! That’s so weird. I can find lean turkey breakfast sausage at every store in my area (and I’m in a small town!) Have you tried looking near the bacon/sausage section where they have already cooked sausage? Johnsonville makes some that are precooked (and crumbled) and will work in this recipe! If not, can you find links? I’ve seen some people cut up sausage links before too. I hope that hopes.
I found Jennie o Natural turkey sausage. But nothing that says LEAN. is it the same?
lol
here’s a link to the exact sausage I buy for this recipe. I hope this helps! I can’t really tell without seeing the package for myself, but it sounds like it’s probably the same.

Delicious and so simple! Made this last night and just reheated in the oven this morning before taking it to a work holiday potluck. Everyone loved it and was asking for the recipe! Thank you!!!!
Just had to tell you, I’m a long time follower of you on IG and have made TONS of your recipes but I’ve never commented (BTW they are all INCREDIBLE) BUT… I had to comment on this one! I’ve been seeing it forever and never stopped to make it. Well I made it for dinner last night… AND WHY DID I WAIT SO LONG? I want to eat this every meal of every day! My daughter gobbled it up and begged for seconds, then was sad because she was too full to have thirds and has already requested that I make it a million more times!!
I’m so happy you enjoyed it, Amy!! And thanks for being here for so long. I totally appreciate you!!
Have you ever used your 2 ingredient biscuits in place of the store bought ones?
Wow!!!! So delicious!! Another great recipe the whole family loved. Thank you!!

Did you ever attempt making the Biscuits & Gravy Bake ahead of time — say the night before?
I haven’t made it ahead of time so I’m not sure what the biscuits would do. I think it should be fine, but can’t say for sure. Sorry! I’ll have to try it out soon.

So I made this for the second time tonight. My husband loves it. Tonight I added some diced and sauteed zucchini, mushroom, and 1/2 of an onion. I also added in some dried chives (ok, a lot), and a good amount of hot sauce. So extra tasty with the addition of the veggies. Great recipe – I’m so thankful you shared it!

Oh. My. Goodness. I started weight watchers (for the 5th time) at the beginning of the year. I started following you and some other Weight Watcher Ambassadors, and it’s the best thing I ever did!! I never ate like this last time I tried WW. I made this casserole this morning, and boy am I impressed! You’re right, it felt like an indulgence! Thanks for your blog and your Instagram page. It’s very helpful and very inspiring!

I made this last night for supper for my family of 4 and my brother and his 3 boys. We had ZERO left of the 9×13 pan. None!! Matter of fact, I didn’t spray my pan very good but the smallest nephew (he’s 2) wasn’t done so I had to scrape the pan for him some more bites that had stuck to the pan!! Thanks for a great recipe and if I could give it 10 stars I would!
haha! I’m so happy you were able to scrape some extra up for your nephew. so cute!!

Your recipes look great and they seem so simple. My problem is I have trouble finding the ingredients. Both the biscuits and the sausage are not available in my area. Having a hard time finding something comparable to either also.

Made this tonight for dinner with a side of grapes. My husband immediately requested that I add it into our rotation of dinners! I discovered your blog two weeks ago and have already made about 3 recipes from your site (and have another planned for later this week). Thanks!

We just had this for supper and loved it! With the new point system, can I use 6 real eggs instead of 1 1/2 cups of egg beaters?

I know you have a lot of recipes to go through to update the SP for freestyle. However, I am having a hard time calculating this. Does anyone happen to know what the WW Freestyle points would be for this recipe? Thanks in advance!
just updated it! It’s 7 points now!

Thank you for this recipe! I made it this last weekend and it’s very delicious. My bf and I tried hard not to devour the whole thing. With recipes like this I can eat, feel satisfied and loose weight.
so glad y’all enjoyed it so much! =)

Thank you for this recipe Star! I made it for the first time yesterday for brunch and the whole family loved it, including my 1 year old and my super picky 4 year old. I’m sure it’ll become a regular at our house.
I was also impressed with how well it warms up the next day, I brought one piece of it with me for breakfast this morning at the office.
I’m so glad the whole family enjoyed, Allison! This always finds its way on the table when I have a lot of different mouths to feed because it pleases even the pickiest of eaters. =)

Would you know what size of gravy package? I found an original country gravy which is 2.64 oz or a peppered country gravy which is only 1.15 oz. :-0
I use the 2.64 ounce Country Gravy one for McCormick. I also use Pioneer Brand from time to time which is 2.75 oz! Hope that helps! I’ll specify in directions, thanks!

I was skeptical because this isn’t something I would normally eat, but I made this for “brinner” tonight after seeing someone post it on Instagram, and it was awesome! I couldn’t find lean turkey sausage so I used chicken sausage, and left the cheese off half to keep my serving at 8 SPs. My husband, who loves all those terrible-for-you-but-delicious breakfast foods, LOVED it!
so very happy you enjoyed it, thanks for the feedback! I’m with your hubs- I love all the terrible for you, but delicious breakfast foods too! haha!

Thanks so much. Happy you all loved it!

Hi! I made this for breakfast today and while it was delicious it did not “set” underneath but stayed kind of liquidy… could you give me some advice on what I might have done wrong? I tried following the recipe exactly but I must have messed up somewhere! Is it supposed to be a firm texture when it’s cooked? I put it back in the oven for 10 more minutes so hopefully that does the trick.

I have a package of Jimmy Dean’s Turkey Sausage Crumbles in the fridge that I need to use up. I’m going to try this with the crumbles and maybe it will even bring down the SP’s by 1 or 2! 🙂
I’ve used them personally and I know lots of people use them too! I can’t remember for sure, but I think if you use the same amount as the jennie o ones it’s the same points!I hope you enjoy

Made this last night for the family and WOW, we all LOVED it. It is so delicious. I’ve shared this recipe with so many friends telling them they have to make it. I did end up using Grands and the points came out to 12 with the items I used, but I’ve just read your response to the question regarding the biscuit size and will now be on the lookout for those to use next time.
But this was scrumptious.

Hello Star! Thank you so much for sharing your amazing recipes and your gorgeous little Pepper with us. I was wondering if I could ask about the biscuits you use…I cannot seem to get my recipe down to 8 SPs as the biscuits are registering at a whopping 24 points for 7.5 oz. of Pillsbury Junior Buttermilk (flaky layers) variety. We’ve actually bought several variations and incantations (I had no idea how many until I began looking…wow) and cannot find what you mention using. I’m planning a trip to Wal-Mart this week to check out the Great Value brand to see if we cannot get the point value down. This is also my struggle with your other bakes that include biscuits…they end up being 9-11 points per serving and I end up have to use fewer biscuits which I’m guessing ultimately reduces the overall enjoyability of the dishes. Any advice or guidance you can offer would be so lovely. Thank you again!
Hi Charlene! I do know for sure that the flaky layer biscuit variety is higher in points. I’m guessing they use more butter in the biscuit for the “flaky layer” part. Pillsbury used to make a taller skinny can that is 7.5 oz. Unfortunately in the last year, I have not been able to find them on the shelf. Which is incredibly upsetting to me as I’m sure it has upset other readers. I can tell you that Great Value Brand, Kroger Brand, and an Aldi brand make the exact same tall skinny 7.5 oz can of buttermilk biscuits. All of these cans have 10 biscuits to a can which also makes them unique. I have seen the junior biscuit can at the store, but I never checked the points on those. I did just plug a couple things into my recipe builder though with regular biscuits. If you weigh out 7.5 oz of Pillsbury Grands! southern style biscuits or Pillsbury Grands! Buttermilk biscuits (in the WW app they are shown as 5 Smart Points per biscuit) That will make the bubble ups one point higher. So, Meatball Sub Bubble Up would be 8 Smart Points & Biscuits & Gravy Bake would be 9 Smart Points. Loaded Chicken Bubble Up 9 Smart Points. One thing you could do to reduce the smart points is use a little less cheese in these bakes. I’m a cheese FIEND so I like using a cup of cheese, but they don’t absolutely NEED that much cheese. I hope this helped you a little! I am so sorry. I also hope you can find the great value brand at the store. Let me know how it goes!
Star, you are such a doll to take the time to respond and respond so thoroughly <3 We so very much appreciate it. I will definitely be buying the other brand of biscuits because I do not want to miss out on any of that yumminess! My hubby and I absolutely LOVE LOVE so many of your dishes it's bordering on obsession…at least it's a healthy obsession (Your Chicken Parmesan Meatballs being our #1 go to meal. BTW – We've been buying our bread/rolls in BULK from S. Rosen's and freezing them…that's how much we love to make your amazing chicken parmesan meatball subs from your instagram posts! Aaaand my husband literally eats your marinara like a soup by the bowlful, he loves it that much. It's sooooo bleeping good!) THANK YOU, THANK YOU again for all that you do to make our healthy lifestyle not just more manageable but so much more enjoyable. Hugs to you and yours!!!
Can you please tell us about the bread/rolls you purchase from S. Rosen’s? Are they WW friendly? Which ones do you purchase. Thank you!
I use S. Rosens French Rolls. They are 5 Smart Points each! (Which to me is a good deal for the size) There is a picture of the rolls and the packaging with the post for Chicken French Dips

This is also my struggle with your other bakes that include biscuits…they end up being 9-11 points per serving and I end up have to use fewer biscuits which I’m guessing ultimately reduces the overall enjoyability of the dishes. Any advice or guidance you can offer would be so lovely. Thank you again!
Hi Charlene! I do know for sure that the flaky layer biscuit variety is higher in points. I’m guessing they use more butter in the biscuit for the “flaky layer” part. Pillsbury used to make a taller skinny can that is 7.5 oz. Unfortunately in the last year, I have not been able to find them on the shelf. Which is incredibly upsetting to me as I’m sure it has upset other readers. I can tell you that Great Value Brand, Kroger Brand, and an Aldi brand make the exact same tall skinny 7.5 oz can of buttermilk biscuits. All of these cans have 10 biscuits to a can which also makes them unique. I have seen the junior biscuit can at the store, but I never checked the points on those. I did just plug a couple things into my recipe builder though with regular biscuits. If you weigh out 7.5 oz of Pillsbury Grands! southern style biscuits or Pillsbury Grands! Buttermilk biscuits (in the WW app they are shown as 5 Smart Points per biscuit) That will make the bubble ups one point higher. So, Meatball Sub Bubble Up would be 8 Smart Points & Biscuits & Gravy Bake would be 9 Smart Points. Loaded Chicken Bubble Up 9 Smart Points. One thing you could do to reduce the smart points is use a little less cheese in these bakes. I’m a cheese FIEND so I like using a cup of cheese, but they don’t absolutely NEED that much cheese. I hope this helped you a little! I am so sorry. I also hope you can find the great value brand at the store. Let me know how it goes!
Star, you are such a doll to take the time to respond and respond so thoroughly <3 We so very much appreciate it. I will definitely be buying the other brand of biscuits because I do not want to miss out on any of that yumminess! My hubby and I absolutely LOVE LOVE so many of your dishes it's bordering on obsession…at least it's a healthy obsession (Your Chicken Parmesan Meatballs being our #1 go to meal. BTW – We've been buying our bread/rolls in BULK from S. Rosen's and freezing them…that's how much we love to make your amazing chicken parmesan meatball subs from your instagram posts! Aaaand my husband literally eats your marinara like a soup by the bowlful, he loves it that much. It's sooooo bleeping good!) THANK YOU, THANK YOU again for all that you do to make our healthy lifestyle not just more manageable but so much more enjoyable. Hugs to you and yours!!!
Can you please tell us about the bread/rolls you purchase from S. Rosen’s? Are they WW friendly? Which ones do you purchase. Thank you!
I use S. Rosens French Rolls. They are 5 Smart Points each! (Which to me is a good deal for the size) There is a picture of the rolls and the packaging with the post for Chicken French Dips

I apologize for this! It has been driving me crazy all day so I think I finally figured it out. I corrected the gravy to account for the whole package (so now in my app it says 10sp for the whole package), but it was the sausage that was incorrect! In your ingredients it says 8oz of raw sausage but in the notes section it says about 5.5oz per half when it is cooked. I had it still as 8oz when actually it wa only about 5 when I weighed it after I cooked it. So backing it down from 8oz to the actual 5 made me finally get 8sp per serving! Sorry for so many comments today!
Hi Katie! So sorry I did not reply earlier to your message. I took the day away from my computer and phone due to family time! I’m sorry that it got confusing for you and that I wasn’t able to help, but I’m glad you figured it all out. I hope you enjoyed the bake! and on a normal basis, I comment back fairly quick so today was rare. Merry Christmas!

Hi Star, as I input all the ingredients, it is only coming out to 7sp per serving. I think I may be incorrect with the gravy in my recipe builder. In my builder, it says McCormick Country Gravy Mix, Sausage Flavor, 1 1/3Tbsp is the serving size, for 2sp. Is this correct? Otherwise the breakdown of my other ingredients are as follows:
8oz of Jennie-o breakfast sausage 10sp
Kraft reduced fat mild cheddar 11sp
Great value buttermilk biscuits 17sp
Egg beaters 2sp
I would feel more comfortable if it were 8sp!! Just wanted to check on the total gravy points for the recipe as I may be incorrect here. Thank you!

This was delicious! I will definitely be making this again. I baked this an additional 10 minutes because I was not sure if it was done enough or if it is suppose to be a little soupy. Not sure if that is the right word I am looking for that is why I cooked a little longer.Thank you for the wonderful recipe.

I literally said, “oh yum” out loud. And I’m at home by myself. Thanks for the great recipe! I decide to skip the cheese and double the sausage like you did on insta and I looooooooooooooove it.
I’m blomtiu on insta in case you’re wondering! HA!
hahaha! I am so glad you enjoyed! and I’ll check out your IG!

Hey Star, just wondering if you have ever frozen this after its cooked.
I personally have not, but a few readers of mine have! They said it worked perfectly and to wrap individual slices in saran wrap and then tin foil. I hope that helps!

Is it supposed to be mushy? It wasn’t awful but not the texture I was expecting. Just wonder if I should have cooked it a bit longer…
Hi Brandy! Just saw these. I hope it wasn’t because of my instructions. Please let me know if it was, and I hope you try to make it again. I promise you it’s delicious! 🙂

Can I use regular eggs instead of egg beaters? How many eggs would I need?
Sure can! 6 eggs is the equivalent to 1 1/2 cup egg beaters 🙂

Would you know what size of gravy package? I found an original country gravy which is 2.64 oz or a peppered country gravy which is only 1.15 oz. :-0
Wasn’t sure which one I should use an I am prepping this for dinner tonight. Oops
Can’t wait to try this recipe
Thanks for the clarification!

I want to make this for breakfast tomorrow! Do you think it would ok to prep it all tonight so all I have to do is throw it in the oven in the morning? Or should I just wait?
Thanks!
I would wait and make it in the morning! I have never tested it this way- but this question has been asked multiple times, so I’m going to try it and see how it turns out this week!

I just made this recipe this morning for breakfast & absolutely loved it. It’s going to be perfect for my husband & I to heat up before work this week. I was wondering though how it was you got 8sp out of each serving? When I entered the information you provided into my WW app it came out as 6sp..am I missing something? Thanks in advanced!
Hmmm! did you use different cheese possibly?! I’m so glad you and your husband love it!

Just made this after seeing it on Instagram from a bunch of weight watchers. I’m having it for the week at work but I snuck a little bite and it’s delicious! Thanks for posting so many delicious point friendly recipes!
Hey Sara! I am so happy that you liked it. I know when I make it for my breakfasts during the week it’s pretty much impossible for me not to taste test! I’m also so very happy you enjoy my recipes! thanks so much for the support!
