Ingredients

  • 1 pound turkey sausage crumbled
  • 4 large eggs
  • 1 cup cream cheese softened
  • 30 ounces frozen hash browns thawed
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
  • salt and pepper to taste
  • 2 tablespoons chopped green onions optional

Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease your 9x13-inch casserole dish with butter or non-stick spray to prevent sticking.
  • In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the crumbled turkey sausage until browned and cooked through, about 7-9 minutes. Drain any excess fat and set aside.
  • Place the cream cheese in a mixing bowl to soften if not already room temperature to help it blend easily with the eggs and milk.
  • In the bowl with softened cream cheese, whisk together the 4 large eggs and 1/2 cup milk until smooth and creamy. Stir in garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper.
  • Add the thawed hashbrowns and shredded cheddar cheese into the egg and cream cheese mixture. Fold gently until evenly combined.
  • Spread half of the hashbrown mixture evenly in the prepared casserole dish. Sprinkle the cooked turkey sausage over this layer, then top with the remaining hashbrown mixture.
  • Bake the casserole in the preheated oven for 45-50 minutes or until the top is golden brown, the eggs are set, and the casserole is bubbly around the edges.
  • Sprinkle chopped green onions over the top for a fresh pop of color and flavor. Let the casserole cool for 5-10 minutes before slicing and serving.
