A simple and cheesy hash brown egg casserole perfect for breakfast or brunch gatherings. This make-ahead dish is easy to prepare and reheat, making it ideal for busy mornings or holiday celebrations.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 (30 ounce) package frozen shredded hash browns, thawed
  • 1 pound breakfast sausage, cooked and crumbled
  • 1 cup chopped onion
  • 1 cup chopped green bell pepper
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 8 large eggs
  • 2 cups milk
  • 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 9×13 inch baking dish.
  2. In a large bowl, combine the thawed hash browns, cooked sausage, chopped onion, chopped green bell pepper, salt, and pepper. Mix well.
  3. Spread the hash brown mixture evenly into the prepared baking dish.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs and milk until well combined.
  5. Pour the egg mixture over the hash brown mixture in the baking dish.
  6. Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese evenly over the top.
  7. Bake for 45-55 minutes, or until the casserole is set and the cheese is melted and lightly golden.
  8. Let the casserole stand for 5-10 minutes before serving.

Notes

  • For a make-ahead option, assemble the casserole (up to step 5) the night before. Cover and refrigerate. When ready to bake, remove from the refrigerator 30 minutes prior to baking and add an additional 5-10 minutes to the baking time.
  • Reheating: Leftovers can be reheated in the oven at 300 degrees F (150 degrees C) until warmed through, or in the microwave.
  • You can substitute other cooked meats like bacon or ham for the sausage.
  • Add other vegetables like mushrooms or jalapeños for extra flavor.
