Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound Breakfast sausage
- 3 cups Frozen hash browns (shredded)
- 8 large Eggs
- 1 cup Milk
- 2 cups Cheddar cheese (shredded)
- 1 medium Onion (diced)
- 1 medium Bell pepper (diced)
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 as needed Cooking spray
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking dish with cooking spray and set it aside.
In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the breakfast sausage until browned and fully cooked, breaking it into small crumbles. Drain any excess grease and set the sausage aside.
In the same skillet, sauté the diced onion and bell pepper for 3-4 minutes until softened.
Spread the frozen hash browns in an even layer across the bottom of the prepared baking dish.
Sprinkle the cooked sausage, onions, and bell peppers evenly over the hash browns.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, black pepper, and garlic powder until well combined.
Pour the egg mixture evenly over the casserole, making sure to soak all ingredients.
Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese evenly on top.
Cover the casserole with aluminum foil and bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes.
Remove the foil and bake for an additional 15 minutes or until the casserole is set in the center and the cheese is bubbly and golden brown.
Let the casserole cool for 5 minutes before slicing and serving. Enjoy!
