Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 lb (450 g) breakfast sausage, cooked and crumbled
  • 1 bag (32 oz or 900 g) frozen hash browns, thawed
  • 8 large eggs
  • 1 cup (240 ml) whole milk
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper
  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/2 tsp onion powder
  • 2 cups (200 g) shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1/2 cup (50 g) shredded Monterey Jack cheese (optional)
  • 1/4 cup (30 g) chopped green onions (optional, for garnish)

 

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a 9×13-inch baking dish.
  2. Cook the Sausage:
    • In a skillet over medium heat, cook the breakfast sausage until browned and fully cooked. Drain any excess grease.
  3. Assemble the Casserole:
    • Spread the thawed hash browns evenly in the bottom of the prepared baking dish. Sprinkle the cooked sausage over the hash browns.
    • In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder. Pour the egg mixture evenly over the hash browns and sausage.
    • Sprinkle shredded cheddar and Monterey Jack cheese evenly over the top.
  4. Bake:
    • Bake uncovered for 35-40 minutes, or until the eggs are set and the top is golden brown.
  5. Cool and Serve:
    • Let the casserole cool for 5 minutes. Garnish with chopped green onions if desired, and serve warm.

Notes

  • For a vegetarian version, replace the sausage with sautéed vegetables like mushrooms, spinach, and bell peppers.
  • Leftovers can be stored in the fridge for up to 4 days or frozen for up to 2 months. Reheat in the oven or microwave.
  • For added spice, use hot breakfast sausage or add diced jalapeños.
