1 lb. breakfast sausage, remove casings and crumbled
1 large onion, diced
1 red pepper, diced
1 green pepper, diced
1 jalapeno pepper, discard seeds and dice
1/2 Tbsp. garlic salt
1 garlic clove, minced
4 Tbsp. butter
6 Tbsp. flour
4 c. whole milk
5 c. colby jack cheese
1 c. pepper jack cheese
Salt and pepper to taste
4 eggs
6 toasted breakfast biscuits, crumbled (homemade or in the refrigerator section)

Directions:
Preheat oven to 375 degrees.

Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil.  Add the pasta and cook until al dente, about 10 minutes.

In a large skillet over medium-high heat, cook the sausage until browned.  Remove sausage from the pan, drain the fat off and set sausage aside.  In the same skillet, add the onion, peppers and garlic salt and cook over medium-high heat until softened.  Add the garlic and cook for 1 minute.  Remove onion and pepper mixture from heat and set aside.

Add butter to the same skillet and stir constantly until melted.  Add the flour and stir constantly over medium heat for 3-4 minutes.  Slowly pour in the milk and whisk continuously until it is smooth and has thickened, about 4-6 minutes.  Remove skillet from the heat and stir in 4 c. of colby jack cheese and 1/2 c. pepper jack cheese along with salt and pepper to taste.  Add the pasta, cooked sausage, onion/pepper mixture to the cheese mixture and stir until combined.  Pour into a large buttered baking dish.

In a small bowl, whisk all the eggs together.  Add in remaining cheese and crumbled biscuits, stir until combined.  Pour this mixture over the pasta in the baking dish.  Bake for 25-30 minutes or until golden brown and bubbly.  Let stand for 10 minutes before serving.
