Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pound Beef Breakfast Sausage
  • 6 strips Bacon, chopped
  • 8 ounces Cream Cheese, softened
  • 1 cup Sour Cream
  • 1 cup Whole Milk
  • 8 large Eggs
  • 2 cups Shredded Cheddar Cheese
  • 30 ounces Frozen Shredded Hash Browns, thawed and drained
  • 1 packet Ranch Seasoning Mix
  • 1 teaspoon Onion Powder
  • 1 teaspoon Garlic Powder
  • 1 teaspoon Salt
  • 1 teaspoon Black Pepper
  • 1 cup Diced Bell Peppers
  • 1 cup Fresh or Thawed Spinach, well-drained

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease a 9×13-inch baking dish with cooking spray or butter.
  2. In a skillet over medium heat, cook the beef sausage and chopped bacon until browned, ensuring to drain any excess grease.
  3. In a separate pan, sauté the diced bell peppers and spinach for 3-5 minutes until tender.
  4. Press the thawed and drained hash browns evenly into the bottom of the baking dish.
  5. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, whole milk, softened cream cheese, and sour cream until smooth. Whisk in the ranch seasoning mix, onion powder, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper.
  6. Layer the cooked sausage, bacon, sautéed peppers, and spinach over the hash brown base, sprinkling 1.5 cups of shredded cheddar cheese on top.
  7. Carefully pour the egg mixture over the casserole, ensuring it’s evenly distributed, then sprinkle the remaining cheese on top.
  8. Cover loosely with foil and bake for 30 minutes. Remove foil and bake for an additional 25-35 minutes until set and golden brown.
  9. Let rest for 10-15 minutes before slicing and serving.

Notes

Customize the casserole with your choice of veggies or cheese. Can also be prepared ahead of time and frozen.
