Sausage and Hash Brown Breakfast Casserole
Ingredients
- 30 oz. frozen hash browns, diced or shredded
- 1 lb bulk breakfast sausage, (pork, turkey, chicken or beef)
- 1 onion, diced
- 1 teaspoon salt, divided
- 1 teaspoon black pepper, divided
- 6 eggs
- 2 cups milk
- 1 1/2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
Instructions
- To begin, preheat your oven to 350 degrees.
- Cook the hash browns according to package directions, with 1/2 teaspoon each of salt and pepper. When they are cooked, place them into a 9 x 13 inch baking dish that has been sprayed with cooking spray.
- In a skillet, cook the sausage and onion together, breaking up the sausage as it cooks with your spatula or wooden spoon. Cook until the sausage is cooked through and no longer pink, and the onion is tender. Scoop the cooked sausage and onion into the baking dish with the hash browns. Stir them together, then sprinkle the shredded cheese over the top and set it aside for a moment.
- In a bowl, beat together the eggs and milk with the remaining 1/2 teaspoon each of salt and pepper. Pour the mixture over the top.
- Bake uncovered for 35 – 40 minutes or until the eggs are set in the center.
- Enjoy!
