Ingredients
- cooking spray (such as Pam®)
- 1 pound mild breakfast sausage
- 1 medium sweet onion, chopped
- 1 green bell pepper, seeded and chopped
- 1 jalapeno pepper, seeded and chopped
- 1 (20 ounce) package Southwest-style hash browns (such as Simply Potatoes®), thawed
- 2 cups grated Cheddar cheese, divided
- 3 plum tomatoes, chopped
- 1 (4 ounce) can chopped green chiles (Optional)
- 8 large eggs
- ½ cup milk
- salt and ground black pepper to taste
- 1 dash hot sauce (such as Tabasco®), or to taste (Optional)
Directions
Step 1
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Spray a 9×13-inch baking dish with cooking spray.
Step 2
Cook and stir sausage, onion, bell pepper, and jalapeno pepper in a skillet over medium-high heat until sausage is browned and crumbled and vegetables are translucent, 5 to 7 minutes. Drain well.
Step 3
Combine drained sausage mixture, hash browns, 1 1/2 cups Cheddar cheese, tomatoes, and green chiles in a bowl; stir gently to combine. Pour into the prepared dish.
Step 4
Beat eggs with milk in a bowl and add salt, pepper, and hot sauce. Pour egg mixture over potato mixture.
Step 5
Bake in the preheated oven for 50 minutes. Top with remaining Cheddar cheese. Continue to bake, 5 to 10 minutes more. Remove from the oven and let stand for 5 minutes. Cut into squares and serve.
Cook’s Note:
You can use spicy breakfast sausage instead of mild if you like.
