Sausage and Sweet Potato Brunch Casserole

I love brunch. It's the perfect excuse to Paleo cheat and have a latte, and also to Paleo splurge and eat bacon.  I love the time of day, right in between breakfast and lunch- brunch allows for a lazy morning (or a morning workout) but also for an afternoon of productivity. Finally, I love the type of people who brunch; casual but classy folks who generally have something substantial to add to conversation. I associate brunch with morning visits to the farmers market, mimosas, and intimate conversations leading to meaningful connections. If you haven't made it a habit to experience the joy of brunching, I highly recommend scheduling it into your weekend in the near future.. or, make this casserole. It's big enough to share with a Paleo buddy or two :-)
