Christmas Eve night I stayed up really late working on finishing a special gift to each of our kids that I was making. Finally once I had finished it was this time:

2:39am that is – At this time I needed to start breakfast. We have 6 people staying with us this.entire.week 🙂 so I had planned on making some type of egg casserole like my in-laws make. I didn’t have a recipe so I went to my favorite search engine, Pinterest.

In a large glass baking dish add partially defrosted hash browns and cheese

In a bowl combine eggs and evaporated milk

Whip and season with salt and pepper

Brown breakfast sausage of your choice

Add sausage and whatever veggies you would like (I used an orange pepper) to the potatoes and cheese

Pour in egg mixture

I then covered it with plastic wrap and stuck it in the fridge until morning.

(Then I baked a loaf of apple streusel, finally went up to bed at 4am!)

The next morning I pulled it out and baked it for one hour at 350°. It was delicious! The only thing I would have changed would have been to add green pepper, but I didn’t have any 🙁 However, I loved the simplicity of this recipe and that it was able to be prepared a head of time!

It’s a definite make again!
