🧀 Cheesy Sausage Hashbrown Bake

Ingredients:

• 1 lb breakfast sausage (pork, turkey, or spicy if preferred)

• 1 (30 oz) bag frozen hashbrowns, thawed

• 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese (plus extra for topping, if desired)

• 1/2 cup sour cream

• 1 can (10.5 oz) cream of mushroom or cream of chicken soup

• 1/2 cup milk

• 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder

• 1/2 teaspoon onion powder

• Salt & pepper, to taste

• Optional add-ins: chopped green onions, diced bell peppers, or hot sauce

Instructions:

1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a 9×13-inch baking dish.

2. Cook the sausage:

   • In a skillet over medium heat, crumble and brown the sausage until fully cooked. Drain any excess fat.

3. Mix everything:

   • In a large bowl, combine the cooked sausage, hashbrowns, cheese, sour cream, soup, milk, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Mix until well blended.

4. Assemble the casserole:

   • Spread the mixture evenly into the prepared baking dish. Sprinkle extra cheese on top if you’d like it extra cheesy.

5. Bake:

   • Bake uncovered for 40–45 minutes, or until golden and bubbly. The top should be slightly crispy and cheese melted.

6. Cool slightly and serve:

   • Let it rest for 5–10 minutes before slicing. Garnish with green onions or hot sauce if desired.
