Ingredients

• 12 large eggs
• 1 cup milk
• 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
• 3 cups frozen hash browns
• 1 pound breakfast sausage
• 1 medium bell pepper, diced
• 1 medium onion, diced
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
• 0.5 teaspoon garlic powder
• 0 cooking spray

Directions

Step 1

Spray the inside of the crock pot with cooking spray to prevent sticking.

Step 2

Brown the breakfast sausage in a skillet over medium heat, breaking it apart into crumbles as it cooks. Drain excess grease and set aside.

Step 3

In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, black pepper, and garlic powder until fully combined.

Step 4

Layer 1.5 cups of hash browns at the bottom of the crock pot.

Step 5

Add half of the browned sausage, half of the diced bell pepper, half of the diced onion, and 1 cup of shredded cheddar cheese on top of the hash browns.

Step 6

Repeat the layers: add the remaining 1.5 cups of hash browns, the rest of the sausage, bell pepper, onion, and the final 1 cup of shredded cheddar cheese.

Step 7

Pour the egg mixture evenly over all the layers in the crock pot, ensuring everything is evenly coated.

Step 8

Cover the crock pot with the lid and set it to low heat. Cook for 6 hours, or until the eggs are fully set and the edges are golden brown.

Step 9

Once done, turn off the crock pot and let the casserole cool slightly for 5-10 minutes before slicing and serving.

Step 10

Garnish with additional shredded cheese or chopped green onions, if desired. Enjoy!
