This one is a little different from my other breakfast casseroles on the blog in that it has hashbrowns. I do love a potato. It also has homemade turkey sausage, but you can use any sausage or meat you like.
This would be great for a breakfast or brunch, and feeds several so it may come in handy over the holidays. You can also easily adapt it to suit your family's taste buds.
Sausage and Hashbrown Breakfast Casserole
1 pound sausage (I used turkey breakfast sausage)
1/2 cup chopped veggies (optional - I used some very finely chopped onion and green pepper, because my kids are super picky, and only about a 1/4 cup)
1/2 bag of shredded hashbrown potatoes (approx 3 cups), thawed
pinch of salt
8 eggs
1 cup milk
2 cups cheese
seasonings - fresh ground pepper, parsley, etc. (optional)
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees
- In an oven proof skillet*, cook sausage on stove top over medium high heat, breaking up sausage as it cooks. Add vegetables in (if using) when sausage is about half way cooked. (Drain fat if needed).
- Remove from heat and sprinkle potatoes over the meat.
- Add a pinch of salt over potatoes.
- In a mixing bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, and desired seasonings.
- Pour eggs over potatoes in skillet.
- Top with cheese.
- Place skillet in over and bake for approx 45 minutes or until eggs are set.
*I used a 10-inch cast iron pan.
