How to Make Cheesy Hash Brown Casserole

First, you will layer the hash browns, sausage, peppers, onions, seasonings, and cheese in your oven-safe dish. Next, you will pour the beaten eggs over all the layered ingredients. Finally, you’ll bake the casserole to a nice golden brown.

Recipe Notes and Ingredient Substitutions

  1. You can use shredded Hash Brown potatoes for this recipe or diced hashbrowns.
  2. I used sausage, but bacon or ham would be equally good in this recipe. If you don’t care for cheese, you can make my recipe for this sausage hashbrown casserole instead.
  3. You may want to turn this into a dinner casserole meal by using ground beef. Now, that would be good!
  4. I baked my casserole in a 10-inch pie pan. You can bake it in a round pan, square pan, or oblong pan. As long as your hashbrowns are approximately 1 and 1/2 inch thick, your cook time will be the same. The center be ‘set’ not jiggly and the cheese to be melted when done.
