Ingredients
- 8 large eggs
- 1 cup milk
- 1 pound ground breakfast sausage
- 3 cups frozen hash brown potatoes
- 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 teaspoon salt

Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking dish with non-stick cooking spray or butter.
Step 2
In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the ground sausage, breaking it up with a spoon, until browned and fully cooked. Drain any excess grease and set the sausage aside.
Step 3
Spread the frozen hash browns evenly across the bottom of the prepared baking dish.
Step 4
Sprinkle the cooked sausage over the hash browns, spreading it out evenly.
Step 5
In a mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, black pepper, onion powder, and garlic powder until well combined.
Step 6
Pour the egg mixture evenly over the sausage and hash browns in the casserole dish.
Step 7
Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese evenly over the top of the casserole. If using, add the chopped green onions as garnish.
Step 8
Cover the casserole dish loosely with aluminum foil and bake in the preheated oven for 25 minutes.
Step 9
Remove the foil and continue baking for an additional 15 minutes, or until the eggs are fully set and the cheese is melted and golden brown.
Step 10
Remove the casserole from the oven and let it rest for 5 minutes before slicing and serving.
