Ingredients

  • 8 large eggs
  • 1 cup milk
  • 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
  • 3 cups frozen hash browns (thawed)
  • 1 pound breakfast sausage (ground)
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 medium onion (diced)
  • 1 medium bell pepper (diced)
  • 1 tablespoon butter (for greasing)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking dish with butter and set aside.

Step 2

In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the breakfast sausage until browned and crumbled. Remove the sausage from the skillet and set aside, draining any excess grease.

Step 3

In the same skillet, sauté the diced onion and bell pepper until softened, about 3-5 minutes. Remove from heat.

Step 4

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, and black pepper until well combined.

Step 5

To the mixture, stir in the shredded cheddar cheese, thawed hash browns, cooked sausage, and sautéed vegetables. Mix thoroughly.

Step 6

Pour the mixture into the prepared baking dish, spreading it out evenly.

Step 7

Bake in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, or until the casserole is set and the top is golden brown.

Step 8

Remove from the oven and let it cool for 5 minutes before slicing and serving.

Step 9

Enjoy your Easy Cheesy Brunch Casserole!
