Ingredients
  

Ingredients
  • 2 cups frozen shredded hash browns, thawed
  • 8 large eggs
  • 1 lb turkey sausage or chicken sausage, cooked and crumbled
  • 1 can (16.3 oz) refrigerated biscuits, cut into quarters
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1 cup milk or half-and-half
  • 1/2 cup diced bell peppers (any color)
  • 1/2 cup diced onion
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon dried parsley
  • 1/2 teaspoon paprika
  • Salt and black pepper to taste
  • Cooking spray or butter for greasing

Method
 

Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x13 inch baking dish with cooking spray or butter to prevent sticking.
  2. Spread the thawed hash browns evenly across the bottom of the prepared baking dish. Arrange the biscuit quarters over the hash browns, then sprinkle the cooked sausage, diced peppers, and onions evenly over the top.
  3. In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, garlic powder, parsley, paprika, salt, and pepper until well combined and slightly frothy.
  4. Pour the egg mixture evenly over the layered ingredients in the baking dish. Make sure the liquid reaches all areas of the casserole. Sprinkle the shredded cheese over the top.
  5. Cover the baking dish with aluminum foil and bake for 30 minutes. Remove the foil and continue baking for another 20-25 minutes, or until the eggs are set and the top is golden brown. A knife inserted in the center should come out clean.
  6. Let the casserole rest for 5-10 minutes before slicing and serving. This allows the eggs to set properly and makes for cleaner slices.

Notes

For an overnight breakfast casserole, assemble everything as directed, cover tightly with plastic wrap, and refrigerate overnight. In the morning, remove from refrigerator 30 minutes before baking to take the chill off, then bake as directed.
