Ingredients

• 8 eggs
• 1 cup milk
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
• 1 pound breakfast sausage
• 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
• 1 cup diced bell peppers
• 0.5 cup diced onion
• 3 cups frozen hash browns
• 1 tablespoon butter
• 2 tablespoons green onions (optional)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease a 9x13-inch baking dish with butter or cooking spray.

Step 2

In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the sausage until it is browned and fully cooked, breaking it up into crumbles as it cooks. Remove from heat and set aside.

Step 3

In the same skillet, melt 1 tablespoon of butter and sauté the diced bell peppers and onions until they are tender, about 5 minutes. Set aside.

Step 4

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

Step 5

Spread the frozen hash browns evenly on the bottom of the greased baking dish.

Step 6

Sprinkle the cooked sausage evenly over the hash browns, followed by the sautéed bell peppers and onion.

Step 7

Pour the egg mixture over the layers in the baking dish, ensuring it covers everything evenly.

Step 8

Top with the shredded cheddar cheese, spreading it evenly over the casserole.

Step 9

Bake in the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes, or until the eggs are set and the top is golden brown.

Step 10

Let the casserole cool for 5-10 minutes before serving. Garnish with chopped green onions if desired.

Step 11

Slice into portions and serve warm. Enjoy your Good Morning Casserole!
