Ingredients
- 1 package about 24 oz frozen hash browns, thawed
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- ½ cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1 cup cooked breakfast sausage or bacon pieces
- 1 small onion finely chopped
- 1 red bell pepper diced
- 6 large eggs
- 1 cup milk
- 1 teaspoon salt
- ½ teaspoon black pepper
- ½ teaspoon garlic powder
- 2 tablespoons butter for greasing pan
Instructions
Preheat Oven
- Set oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease the baking dish with butter to prevent sticking.
Mix Hash Browns
- In a large bowl, combine thawed hash browns, cheese, cooked meat, onion and bell pepper.
Whisk Eggs and Milk
- In another bowl, whisk eggs with milk, salt, pepper and garlic powder until smooth.
Combine Everything
- Pour egg mixture into hash brown mixture. Stir gently to mix evenly but do not overmix.
Transfer to Baking Dish
- Spread mixture evenly in the prepared 9x13-inch dish. Smooth the top with a spatula.
Top with Extra Cheese
- Sprinkle remaining cheddar or mozzarella on top for extra cheesy goodness.
Bake the Casserole
- Bake in preheated oven for 45-50 minutes. The top should be golden and eggs set.
Cool Slightly
- Let casserole rest for 5-10 minutes before slicing. This helps it hold shape.
Serve and Enjoy
- Cut into squares and serve warm. Perfect with coffee or orange juice.
Notes
- Use cooked ham instead of sausage or bacon for a different flavor.
- Add spinach or mushrooms for extra veggies.
- Use pepper jack cheese for a spicy kick.
- Make ahead: assemble the night before and bake in the morning.
- Sprinkle fresh herbs like parsley or chives before serving for freshness.
