This fantastically easy, tonguegasmically delicious breakfast casserole is also featured over on Blissfully Delish today as a part of our month of eggs in conjunction with the American Egg Board, and over on Blissfully Delish, I’ll give you the lower fat recipe 
But y’all know I don’t do low fat over here.
One of the reasons that I love this dish so much is that it’s easy, it can be made the night before and with the blending of the spicy sausage and the creamy eggs and cheese mixture. Seriously y’all your taste buds will dance with delight and your friends and family will ask what they can do for you if you’ll only make this dish for them.
Sausage and Egg Casserole
- 4 C frozen shredded hashbrowns
- 2 C shredded cheddar
- 1 lb (cooked) breakfast sausage, I use the hot sausage because we like a little zoomph in our food
- 1/2 C green onion, chopped
- 8 eggs, beaten
- 2 (12 oz) cans evaporated milk
- 1/2 to 1 tsp pepper
- 1/2 tsp salt
- Arrange hashbrowns in an even layer in the bottom of a greased 9X13 pan
- Sprinkle with cheese, sausage and green onion: set aside
- Combine eggs, milk, salt and pepper: blend well
- Pour over hashbrown mixture, cover and refrigerate for several hours, or overnight
- Bake, uncovered at 350 degrees until the center is set: 40 to 50 minutes if chilled. 50 to 60 minutes if chilled overnight.

I live in the south… I’m down with any recipe that has “sausage” in the title. Sounds awesome and I’ll be sure to test it this week!

Now, don’t fall out of your chair or anything, but I actually make this one periodically. We don’t put the hashbrowns at the bottom, but that’s an interesting twist on the recipe I use (which is actually “start with eggs and throw in all the leftovers from the fridge”).

My aunt does a version of this for our birthday luncheons (she serves it as a brunch meal) and it’s FABULOUS!!! I’ve never attempted it myself yet, though. Thanks for sharing the recipe!
my mouth is watering right now
This dish is an example of why so many American children are overweight or obese.
Food doesn’t make children fat…lack of parenting and education about good food choices does….children are obese because parents allow them to sit in front of the tv and eat whatever they want.
Actually McDonalds and Burger King and Sugars and Cakes, and chips make our children obese… Breakfast is the most important meal of the day.. THis has protein, dary, and starch all wrapped up in one simple meal. All we need is some orange juice.

I love sausage in my Grandma’s, Mom’s and Bob Evan’s biscuits and gravy recipe.
