Ingredients

  • 1 lb Bacon. chopped in pieces or 1 lb. ground sausage
  • 1 small Onion chopped
  • 4 Cups Frozen Shredded Hash Browns thawed (roughly a 24 oz package)
  • 2 ½ Cups shredded Cheddar Cheese
  • 1 Cup Shredded Swiss Cheese
  • ¾ Cup Milk
  • ¾ Cup Sour Cream
  • 6 Large Eggs

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees.
  • Spray a 9x13 baking dish with non-stick cooking spray.
  • Heat up a frying pan over medium heat and cook the bacon and onions until the bacon is crisp. Drain and discard the bacon grease.
  • While the bacon and onions are cooking, grate the cheese, dump the thawed hash browns into a large bowl, and whisk the eggs, sour cream, and milk together.
  • Dump the hash browns into a large mixing bowl.
  • Mix the crispy bacon, onions, shredded cheddar cheese, and shredded Swiss cheese into the hash browns.
  • Stir the sour cream egg mixture into the hash brown mixture.
  • Dump the hash brown mixture into the prepared baking dish and spread it into an even layer.
  • Feel free to season the top with black pepper.
  • Bake at 375 for 30 minutes, covered with aluminum foil.  Then remove the foil and bake for another 30 minutes.
  • The top should be a little browned, and the eggs should be cooked and set.
  • Store the leftovers in the fridge in an airtight container.

Notes

  • How quickly this casserole bakes depends on whether the hash browns are frozen or not. This breakfast casserole can be made the night before but will cook faster because the hash browns will be thawed.
