Looking for a breakfast recipe.

[halo]

I remember reading (or I dreamt it, who knows) a breakfast casserole recipe that has an egg layer on the bottom with sausage and topped with cheese and hash browns and baked. Maybe thats all it is, but I wondered if anyone had anything remotely like this. Thanks.

Heres my mama's recipe and it is so good. I hope you like this one



EGG SAUSAGE CASSEROLE

(trimmed and cubed) 1 cup cheddar cheese grated
1# small sausage links (precooked) 1 tsp. dry mustard
2 cups whole milk salt and pepper

Butter casserole dish heavily. Line w/bread crumbs. Mix all other
ingredients . Pour over crumbs. Cover tightly and let stand over
night in refrigerator. Bake 350 degrees for 35 to 40 minutes.
Serves 6 to 8.

That does look delish! But Im looking for one that is topped with hash browns. I have the eggs (duh), sausage, and hash browns; I just may have to wing it (wing it, get it, hahahaha) and try to throw something together. How badly can it turn out, anyway? (dont answer that....)

Try using the hash browns instead of the cheese or top the potatoes with the cheese, hey it's Christmas and you only live once. Merry Christmas Laura

The recipe I have calls for hash browns on the bottom, then a layer of sausage or other meat,then cheese mixed with egg and a little milk on top.

You can add other stuff to the layers too, corn, green chilies, etc.

That would probably work....don't the hash browns get soggy on the bottom tho?

 

[allen wranch]

The hash browns absorb the egg and stuff and become part of the casserole, so yes they are not crisp.

That's basically all you do, but I add some Garlic, parsley, salt and pepper and I top the whole thing with sliced tomatoes, that makes it really pretty.

Okay, here's mine:

1/2 lb. (8 oz.) of bulk sausage
2 C. frozen shredded hash browns
1 can of Rotel, drained
1/2 lb. (8 oz.) velvetta, cut up
6 eggs

Brown sausage in skillet on med. heat, drain.
Add hash browns in a layer, then Rotel, cook 5 minutes.
Top with velvetta
Beat eggs & 2 tbsp. milk together
Pour evenly over ingredients in the skillet, cover.
Reduce heat to low.
Cook 10 to 12 minutes or until egg mixture is set in the center and velvetta is melted.
Uncover and let stand 5 minutes before cutting into wedges and serving.

I'll be making it in approx. 2 hours, as that will be our Christmas breakfast when the SO gets home...he devours a skillet full of it.
Also, for those unfamiliar w/Rotel (I never heard of it until I moved to Arkansas....it's a brand name for canned diced tomatoes and green chiles.

well, that all sounds yummy. I think Ill do basically what all of your recipes are, Ill just save some to sprinkle on the top to get crispy. Thanks for all your help. And Merry Christmas to you all!
