Instructions

Step1: Preheat the Oven

Set your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Grease a quiche pan or pie dish with nonstick spray.

Step2: Cook the Sausage

Heat a large skillet over medium heat.
Add 1 lb ground sausage and cook until browned.
Drain excess grease and remove from heat.

Step3: Add Hashbrowns

Add 12 oz frozen hashbrowns to the skillet.
Cook for 2-3 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Remove from heat and let cool slightly.

Step4: Prepare the Egg Mixture

In a large bowl, whisk 10 eggs until combined.
Stir in the cooked sausage and hashbrowns.
Add 1 Tbsp taco seasoning, ¼ cup shredded cheese, and ½ cup chopped tomatoes.

Step5: Assemble & Bake

Pour the egg mixture into the greased dish.
Sprinkle extra cheese on top for a golden crust.
Bake for 22-26 minutes, until eggs are set.

Step6: Cool & Serve

Serve warm with salsa, sour cream, or avocado.

Notes

For extra flavor, use spicy sausage.
Fresh vs. Frozen Potatoes: Fresh potatoes work too—just dice and sauté before adding.
Make it ahead: Assemble the night before and bake in the morning.
For a crispy top, broil for 2 minutes after baking.
