Ingredients
Scale
- 2 lb hot breakfast sausage
- 1 (30-32 oz) bag frozen shredded hash browns
- 1 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp pepper
- 1/4 tsp garlic powder
- 1/4 tsp onion powder
- 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
- 8 eggs
- 2 cups milk
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350ºF and lightly spray a 9×13-inch pan with cooking spray.
- In a large skillet, cook the sausage over medium heat until no longer pink. Drain the fat and set it aside.
- In the same skillet, add the hash browns and cook until lightly browned. If necessary, add a little oil for crispiness.
- Place the hash browns in the bottom of the greased pan, top with the cooked sausage, and sprinkle cheese over everything.

- Bake uncovered for 35-40 minutes or until the eggs are set and the top is slightly golden.
