Ingredients
  

1 lb breakfast sausage (bulk or casings removed)

1 medium onion, diced

2 cups frozen shredded hash browns

8 oz cream cheese, softened

6 large eggs

1 cup milk

1 tsp garlic powder

1 tsp onion powder

1/2 tsp salt

1/2 tsp black pepper

1 cup shredded cheddar cheese

Fresh chives or parsley for garnish (optional)

Instructions
 

Preheat the oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9x13-inch baking dish with cooking spray.

    Cook the sausage: In a large skillet over medium heat, brown the sausage and break it apart with a wooden spoon, cooking until it’s fully cooked through and no longer pink. Add the diced onion and sauté for an additional 3-4 minutes until the onion is soft and translucent. Remove from heat.

      Prepare the cream cheese mixture: In a medium bowl, beat the softened cream cheese with a hand mixer until smooth. Add the eggs, milk, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix until well combined and fluffy.

        Assemble the casserole: In the prepared baking dish, spread the frozen hash browns evenly across the bottom. Top the hash browns with the cooked sausage and onion mixture, distributing it evenly. Pour the cream cheese and egg mixture over the top, ensuring all ingredients are covered. Finally, sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese evenly over the entire casserole.

          Bake the casserole: Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for 35-40 minutes, or until the eggs are set in the center and the cheese is melted and bubbly.

            Garnish and serve: Remove from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes. Garnish with chopped fresh chives or parsley if desired. Cut into squares and serve warm.
