    Breakfast, brunch or breakfast for supper, this Cheesy Sausage Egg Hashbrown Casserole is prepared in minutes and is a delicious way to start your day. Or end it. Layers of sausage, eggs, hashbrowns and cheese make this breakfast casserole an instant favorite.

    Do you ever have breakfast for dinner? We do often. We enjoy breakfast dishes but rarely have time to enjoy them at breakfast!

    So when I get the chance to make a breakfast casserole like this cheesy sausage egg hashbrown casserole for supper, I jump at the chance.

    Breakfast for supper

    I used to think breakfast for supper was faster than making a regular supper, but I don't believe it is. We often make pancakes (blueberry is a favorite) or applesauce puffs. That, of course, requires baking dishes.

    However, we all enjoy eating breakfast foods and to have the time to make this casserole (let alone eat it) makes the family happy.

    Time saving tips for breakfast at supper:

    • If you can, make the muffins, breakfast casseroles or even pancakes ahead of time. You can reheat the pancakes and just pop the casserole in the oven.
    • Make sure you have nothing going on that night. Enjoy the family time so you aren't rushed like you are at breakfast.
    • Bake the bacon in the oven at 400* for 15 minutes or until crisp. You don't have to watch it like you do on the stove and you can use the stove space for eggs or other food items.
    • Have sausage pre-cooked in the freezer. If you cook the sausage ahead of time and freeze it, the prep work for breakfast at dinner goes faster.

    Instructions

    The most time consuming part of making this casserole (besides the baking) is cooking the sausage.

    I personally believe sausage takes longer to cook than hamburger does, though I am not sure why. Maybe it is my imagination.

    Cook the sausage until no longer pink.

    Cook up the sausage until it is no longer pink.

    After cooking, layer in a greased 9x13 baking dish in this order: hashbrowns, eggs, sausage and cheese. You will also pour a little milk (we use almond milk) in the pan.

    Bake for 45 minutes or until done. Be sure to cover the dish with foil then remove it for the last 10 minutes or so. It will help the cheese to melt.

    This breakfast casserole is really that easy! You can certainly add green peppers or green onions to the layering process (about ½ cup). That would add a little punch to the flavor.

    I certainly add salt and pepper to ours.

    Eggs and hasbrowns precooked

    I also used a cheddar cheese but they have a new cheese with a bacon flavor called Smoky Bacon Cheddar. It wasn't used on this casserole, but I have used it in the past and it is delicious!

        I've never used homemade hashbrowns with this recipe so I can't say for sure. However, I would say they could. They may have more moisture in them if they are fresh so maybe use less liquid then the recipe calls for our they may turn mushy. If you try it, I would love to know how it turns out!

          I can NOT get the liquid to solidify. Eggs aren’t solid and it’s been almost an hour. Took the foil aloft at 45 minutes because I thought some of it may evaporate. It’s total mush right now and I check my recipe measurements. Used frozen hash browns too. Not sure what happened.

        We loved this casserole. My family swooned and ate it up for dinner a few weeks back. Now I am making it again (ahead of time) for a big Sunday breakfast in the morning. Last time I added 2 more eggs, just cuz we have so many [we have chickens]. And this time I will also add bell peppers for color. Cant wait to eat it again. Its so good and simple! Thanks for sharing this recipe!

      I'll definitely try this again - very tasty - would be awesome with some mushrooms, maybe spinach too.
      Next time I'll double the liquid - needed to improvise to cover the hashbrowns & sausage.
      I used half sour cream and half milk to add to flavor.

      I have made this casserole for my family 3 times in the past month! It is delicious. The first day that I made it, my mom ate it for breakfast, then again for lunch, and wanted to have it again for dinner! I told her to hold off to save some for the next morning ? Thanks for sharing this recipe!
