Easy Breakfast Casserole

I am no chef, but following recipes is so hard for me. I get too distracted and I like to make things up as I go. I will say it’s a ~risky~ way to live in the kitchen because I have made countless meals that were duds, but this one was amazing!

I looked up a few Pinterest casseroles beforehand and none of them were exactly what I wanted, so let’s get into my version of things.

Ingredients:

1. package of mild sausage
2. 8 eggs
3. shredded cheese of your choice
4. 1/4 cup of milk
5. any veggies you want, I used green peppers

Instructions:

1. Start browning your mild sausage.
2. Start oven preheat. 350 degrees.
3. While the sausage is cooking, crack 8 eggs into a separate bowl.
4. Cut up your green pepper, onion, jalepeno, whatever toppings you want and add to the eggs.
5. Add 1/4 cup of milk to the egg mixture. We only had a mixed bag of cheese and I grabbed a heaping handful and also added to the eggs. Mix in the bowl well.
6. Set your sausage to the side when it’s done browning.
7. Get your baking dish out and add about 2 cups of frozen hash browns to the baking dish. Then top the hash browns with the cooked sausage. I used about half of the sausage and kept the other half for lunch (a yummy pasta with sausage).
8. Top with the egg and veggie mixture and mix it into the hash browns and sausage. I gave a quick mix in the baking dish.
9. Cover the top with shredded cheese of your choice- I used a mixed blend.
10. Bake at 350 for 55 minutes.

This recipe will keep in the fridge for 4 days. You could also wrap individually and freeze it for future use. I always just take mine out of the freezer and let thaw in the fridge overnight and then re-heat in the morning.

Pair this casserole with your favorite hot sauce and iced coffee on the side and you’ll have yourself a hearty and semi-healthy week long breakfast! Let me know if you try it out!
