Ingredients
Butter, for greasing the casserole dish
4 tablespoons olive oil
12 ounces spicy Italian breakfast sausage
12 ounces sweet Italian breakfast sausage
10 frozen hash brown patties, defrosted
6 large eggs
2 cups milk
1 tablespoon garlic powder
Kosher salt and ground black pepper
1 cup shredded sharp Cheddar, plus more for topping
1 cup shredded Monterey Jack, plus more for topping
Directions
- Grease a 9-by-13-inch casserole dish with butter and set aside.
- Divide the olive oil between two medium skillets, and heat both over medium-high heat. Add the spicy and sweet breakfast sausages to one skillet and 8 of the hash brown patties to the other. Cook the sausage, breaking it up with a wooden spoon, until browned, 8 to 10 minutes; remove to a paper-towel-lined plate. Cook the hash brown patties until browned; remove to a paper-towel-lined plate. Arrange the hash brown patties in the bottom of the prepared casserole dish.
- In a large bowl whisk together the eggs, milk, garlic powder, some salt and pepper, and the cheddar, Monterey Jack and some salt and pepper. Pour the mixture over the patties and top with the cooked sausage. Cover the casserole and refrigerate overnight.
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
- Crumble the 2 remaining hash brown patties over the top of the casserole and sprinkle with extra shredded cheese. Bake until the top is browned, 40 to 50 minutes.

This has become a family tradition. I make it every Christmas. I make 2 tweaks, I add diced onions to the hash browns while frying (sprinkle on top of hash browns after I flipped once) and use country breakfast sausage
