Ingredients

• 1 pound Ground breakfast sausage
• 4 medium Russet potatoes
• 3 tablespoons Unsalted butter
• 3 tablespoons All-purpose flour
• 2 cups Whole milk
• 1 cup Shredded cheddar cheese
• 0.5 teaspoons Salt
• 0.25 teaspoons Black pepper
• 0.25 teaspoons Garlic powder
• 1 can Refrigerated biscuit dough
• 1 tablespoon Chopped fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

Step 2

Peel and dice the russet potatoes into small cubes about 1/2 inch in size. Place the diced potatoes into a medium pot and cover with water. Bring to a boil, reduce the heat, and simmer for 8-10 minutes, or until the potatoes are just tender. Drain and set aside.

Step 3

In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the ground breakfast sausage until browned and fully cooked, breaking it up into crumbles with a spatula. Remove the sausage from the skillet and set aside, leaving about 1 tablespoon of grease in the pan. If there is excess grease, drain it.

Step 4

In the same skillet, melt the unsalted butter over medium heat. Whisk in the all-purpose flour and cook for 1 minute, stirring constantly, to form a roux.

Step 5

Slowly pour the whole milk into the roux while whisking continuously to create a smooth sauce. Cook for 2-3 minutes until the sauce begins to thicken.

Step 6

Stir in the cheddar cheese, salt, black pepper, and garlic powder. Mix until the cheese is fully melted and the sauce is smooth.

Step 7

Add the cooked potatoes and browned sausage to the skillet, stirring to coat them in the cheese sauce. Pour the sausage and potato mixture into a 9x13-inch baking dish.

Step 8

Open the can of refrigerated biscuit dough and place the biscuits evenly over the top of the sausage and potato mixture.

Step 9

Bake the dish in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the biscuits are golden brown and cooked through.

Step 10

Remove the dish from the oven and let it cool for 5 minutes. Garnish with chopped fresh parsley if desired. Serve warm and enjoy!
