Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 8 large Eggs
- 1.5 cups Milk
- 1 pound Ground breakfast sausage
- 3 cups Frozen shredded hash browns
- 2 cups Shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 medium Green bell pepper, diced
- 1 small Onion, diced
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Butter, melted
- 2 tablespoons Chopped fresh parsley (optional garnish)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease a 9x13-inch baking dish with non-stick spray or butter.
In a large skillet, cook the ground breakfast sausage over medium heat, breaking it into crumbles, until browned and fully cooked. Remove from heat and set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper until well combined.
In the prepared baking dish, layer the frozen hash browns evenly at the bottom. Drizzle melted butter over the hash browns.
Scatter the cooked sausage, diced green bell pepper, and diced onion evenly over the hash browns.
Pour the egg mixture over the layered ingredients, making sure it is evenly distributed.
Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese evenly across the top of the casserole.
Place the casserole dish in the oven and bake for 40-50 minutes or until the eggs are set in the center and the top is golden brown.
Remove the casserole from the oven and let it rest for 5-10 minutes before cutting and serving.
Optional: Garnish with chopped fresh parsley before serving for added color and flavor.
