Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 cups Potatoes (russet or Yukon Gold, shredded)
- 2 tablespoons Butter
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 8 slices Bacon (cooked and crumbled)
- 1 pound Sausage (crumbled and cooked)
- 8 large Eggs
- 0.5 cup Milk
- 2 cups Cheddar cheese (shredded)
- 2 cups Spinach (fresh, chopped)
- 1 cup Tomatoes (diced)
- 0.5 cup Green onions (sliced)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish using butter or non-stick cooking spray.
In a skillet over medium heat, melt the butter. Add the shredded potatoes and cook until they are just softened, about 5-7 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
Layer the cooked potatoes evenly across the bottom of the prepared baking dish to form the first layer.
Next, sprinkle the cooked and crumbled bacon over the potatoes to form the second layer.
Spread the cooked sausage over the bacon layer as the third layer.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs and milk. Pour the mixture evenly over the sausage for the fourth layer.
Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese over the egg mixture to create the fifth layer.
Add the chopped spinach evenly across the cheese for the sixth layer.
Finish by sprinkling the diced tomatoes and sliced green onions over the top as the seventh and final layer.
Cover the dish with aluminum foil and bake for 25 minutes. Remove the foil and bake for an additional 20 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly and the eggs are fully set.
Remove from the oven and allow the dish to cool for 5 minutes before slicing. Serve warm and enjoy!
