Ingredients
  

1 pound breakfast sausage (choose mild or spicy based on your taste preference)

1 (30-ounce) package frozen hashbrowns (or substitute with 4 cups of homemade hashbrowns)

1 cup shredded cheddar cheese

1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese

6 large eggs

1 cup milk

1 teaspoon garlic powder

1 teaspoon onion powder

½ teaspoon smoked paprika

½ teaspoon salt

¼ teaspoon black pepper

¼ cup chopped green onions (optional, for garnish)

Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven: Set your oven to 350°F (175°C) to warm up while you prepare the casserole.

    Cook the Sausage: In a large skillet over medium heat, add the breakfast sausage. Use a spatula to crumble it as it cooks. Continue to cook until it is browned and no longer pink in the center. Once cooked, drain any excess fat from the skillet and set the sausage aside.

      Prepare the Hashbrowns Mixture: In a large mixing bowl, combine the frozen hashbrowns, the cooked sausage, shredded cheddar cheese, and shredded mozzarella cheese. Stir thoroughly until all ingredients are evenly mixed.

        Create the Egg Mixture: In a separate bowl, crack the 6 large eggs and add the milk. Sprinkle in the garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper. Whisk the mixture until it is smooth and well combined.

          Combine Ingredients: Pour the egg mixture over the hashbrowns and sausage mixture. Gently fold the ingredients together to ensure that the hashbrowns and sausage are evenly coated in the egg mixture.

            Transfer to Baking Dish: Lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking dish with cooking spray or oil. Carefully pour the combined mixture into the dish, spreading it out evenly to ensure even cooking.

              Bake the Casserole: Place the baking dish in your preheated oven. Bake for 45-50 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the center of the casserole is set and firm.

                Garnish and Serve: Once baked, remove the casserole from the oven and let it cool for about 10 minutes. If desired, sprinkle with chopped green onions for a burst of color and flavor. Slice into squares and serve warm.
