Ingredients

• 8 large 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 onions
• 3 cups frozen shredded hash browns
• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley (optional)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish with cooking spray or a light coat of olive oil.

Step 2

In a large skillet over medium heat, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Add the diced onions and bell peppers, and sauté for 4-5 minutes until softened.

Step 3

Add the breakfast sausage to the skillet, breaking it into small pieces, and cook until browned and fully cooked through, about 6-8 minutes. Drain any excess grease and 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 shredded hash browns evenly in the bottom of the prepared baking dish.

Step 6

Layer the cooked sausage mixture over the hash browns, followed by half of the shredded cheddar cheese.

Step 7

Pour the egg mixture evenly over the sausage and cheese layers. Gently press down with a spatula to make sure everything is submerged in the egg mixture.

Step 8

Sprinkle the remaining shredded cheddar cheese evenly over the top.

Step 9

Bake in the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes or until the casserole is set in the center and the top is golden brown. To check doneness, insert a knife into the center—it should come out clean.

Step 10

Remove the casserole from the oven and let it cool for 5-10 minutes. Sprinkle with chopped parsley if desired.

Step 11

Slice into squares and serve warm. Enjoy your delicious breakfast casserole!
