Breakfast Sausage Casserole

We wanted a savory breakfast that packed eggs, sausage, and hashbrowns all into one easy-to-make dish. Better yet if it required minimal prep so that we could assemble it the night before and have it ready to go in the morning. We call for frozen, shredded hash browns to speed the recipe along. To save on clean up, the sausage and vegetables are broiled in a Suvie pan and then the remaining ingredients are layered on top and slow cooked. Cut into slices, this dish has everything you want for breakfast in each multi-layered bite.

Note: If you want to schedule this cook but do not want to wait for the broiler to cool before refrigerating, sauté the sausage and vegetables together on the stovetop in a medium-sized skillet over medium heat until sausage is cooked through and vegetables are soft, about 8-10 minutes.

Ingredients

  • 1 lb bag frozen, shredded hash browns
  • 10 large eggs
  • 1 yellow onion, thinly sliced
  • 1 bell pepper, thinly sliced
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1 lb uncooked breakfast sausage links or fresh breakfast sausage without casing
  • 1½ cups (12 oz) milk, any percentage

Directions

1) Remove sausage from casings and crumble in an even layer into two Suvie pans (if using breakfast sausage without casing simply crumble sausage in an even layer into the pans). Divide peppers and onions between the two pans. Place pans in Suvie and broil for 10-12 minutes or until vegetables are softened and sausage is cooked.

2) Season sausage and vegetable mixture with salt and pepper to taste, breaking up any large pieces of sausage that remain.

3) Add hash browns in an even layer on top of the sausage and vegetable mixture and season with 1/2 tsp salt. Whisk eggs, milk, and ½ tsp salt together in a medium bowl and pour evenly over the hash browns.

4) Sprinkle the top with cheese.

5) Insert pans into your Suvie, input settings, and cook now or schedule.

6) After the casserole has finished cooking, remove the pans from your Suvie, run a knife around the edges of the pan, cut into slices, and serve with hot sauce if desired.

Coffee Pairing

When it comes to pairing eggs and coffee there aren’t any wrong choices. If we would have to pick though, we would recommend a fresh cup of Jamaican Blue Mountain.

First off, just want to say that we’ve tried many delicious dishes from this site. But, this one was a bit of a miss for me. The main issue for me was the hashbrowns. To me, they should add some texture or crunch. Cooking them by the recipe instructions, they do not. That being said, the way the egg and other ingredients come together was good! If I made this again, I’d use spicy sausage. I also think, as a slow cook recipe, this might be better using the Tater Tot Casserole recipe idea from Recette (where they slow cook… Read more »
