- ½ cup milk
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese

Instructions
1. Preheat the Oven
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9×13-inch baking dish.
2. Cook the Sausage
In a skillet over medium heat, cook the sausage until browned and crumbled. Drain excess grease and set aside.

In a large mixing bowl, combine the cooked sausage, thawed hashbrowns, softened cream cheese, eggs, milk, shredded cheddar, and a pinch of salt and pepper. Mix until everything is well incorporated.
4. Bake
Pour the mixture into the prepared baking dish and spread it evenly. Bake uncovered for 45–50 minutes, or until the top is golden and the casserole is set in the center.
5. Cool & Serve
Let cool for about 5–10 minutes before slicing. Serve warm and enjoy!
Make-Ahead & Storage Tips
- Make ahead: Assemble the casserole the night before and refrigerate. Bake in the morning as directed.
- Freeze it: Wrap tightly and freeze before or after baking. Thaw overnight in the fridge before reheating.
- Reheat leftovers in the microwave or oven until warmed through.
Fun Variations
- Add sautéed bell peppers, onions, or spinach for extra veggies.
- Use bacon or ham instead of sausage.
- Sprinkle the top with extra cheese or crushed buttery crackers for crunch.
