Sausage and Hash Brown Bake

Pin It

Back in 2009 my parents got remarried and we had a lot of family attending from New York. My brother and sister-in-law hosted brunch the following day at their house, and I volunteered to make a bunch of different dishes. I came across this recipe and decided to try it out. Man oh man, am I glad I did. It's a real crowd pleaser and super easy to make. 

You can fool any guest and have them think it took you hours to prepare, but in reality it takes a total of ten minutes! Half the recipe for a family or double it for a potluck, it's sure to put a smile on everyone's face. You can even make it the night before and just pop it in the oven the next morning. How perfect is that!?

It's really addictive, so even if you're just making it for your family making double won't hurt anyone. I made it again for a friend's birthday breakfast the other weekend and the six of us cleared the dish. I'm positive you will, too!

  • 2 packages (12 oz. each) bulk sausage
