Easy Country Breakfast Casserole

By á-4677

This dish makes a very hearty breakfast, and easily feeds a large family or group. Fortunately, it is also easy to halve this recipe. I usually serve this with a fruit salad or compote.

Ingredients

• 2 cups hash browns, frozen
• 2 pounds sausage, cooked and drained or 2 pounds bacon (I sometimes use a bit of both.)
• 1/2 cup onion, chopped
• 1/2 cup green bell pepper, chopped
• 12 eggs
• 2 cups milk
• 2 teaspoons salt
• 1 teaspoon fresh ground pepper
• 1 teaspoon dry mustard
• 12 ounces cheddar cheese, grated

Preparation

Step 1

Line a prepared 9 x 13 baking dish with frozen hash browns. Top evenly with cooked sausage (or bacon), onion, and green bell pepper.

In a separate dish, mix together eggs, milk, salt, pepper, and dry mustard. Pour this over meat and hash browns.

Top everything evenly with the grated cheddar cheese.

Refrigerate overnight.

Bake in a preheated 350 degree F oven for about 45 to 60 minutes (or until done and slightly brown).
