Ingredients
- 32 ounces frozen hash brown potatoes 1 bag
- 1 pound Bacon sausage or ham, cooked & cumbled or diced
- 2 cups shredded sharp cheddar cheese about 8 oz
- 2 green onions sliced
- 1 small white onion finely diced, about ½ cup
- 1 red bell pepper diced
- 1 green bell pepper diced
- 12 eggs
- 1 cup milk
- 1 ½ teaspoons dry mustard powder
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- ½ teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
- If using bacon or sausage, cook and crumble. Drain fat leaving 1 tablespoon in the pan.
- If desired, soften the onion in the fat. This is optional but will soften the flavor of the onion.
- Grease a 6qt slow cooker. Place half the hash browns, meat, onions, peppers, and cheese in the slow cooker. Repeat layers ending with cheese, do not stir.
- Whisk eggs, milk, and seasonings in a medium bowl. Pour the egg mixture over the ingredients in the slow cooker.
- Cook on low for 7 to 8 hours or high for 3-4 hours. Once cooked, uncover and let the casserole rest for 15 minutes.
Notes
- Hashbrowns: You can use shredded or diced hashbrowns in this recipe. Diced hashbrowns have more of a 'potato' texture. Use hash browns from frozen, thawed hash browns will cook faster.
- Onion: For a milder onion flavor, cook the onion in a bit of bacon fat or olive oil before adding the to the slow cooker.
- Cooking Time: Cooking time can vary slightly based on your slow cooker. If the casserole is done cooking early, turn the slow cooker to warm and let it rest for up to 1 hour before serving. If using bacon or sausage, you may see a little bit of fat along the edges of the slow cooker, and there will be a little bit of liquid along the edges and perhaps on top. This is expected and most of the liquid will evaporate as the casserole rests.
- Nutrition information accounts for 1/8th of the recipe and uses ham as the protein.
