Time 2h5m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 ½ pounds potatoes, peeled
cooking spray
1 (16 ounce) package pork breakfast sausage
1 sweet onion, chopped
7 eggs
1 (8 ounce) package Cheddar cheese, grated, divided
½ cup milk
salt and ground black pepper to taste

Steps:

  • Preheat an oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C). Prick potatoes several times with a fork and place onto a baking sheet.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until potatoes are soft, 50 minutes to 1 hour. Remove potatoes from oven and let cool until safe to handle, at least 15 minutes.
  • Reduce oven temperature to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Spray a casserole dish or 9x13-inch pan with cooking spray.
  • Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook and stir sausage in the hot skillet until browned and crumbly, 5 to 7 minutes. Transfer sausage to a bowl. Saute onion in the same skillet until translucent, about 5 minutes. Transfer onion to the bowl with the cooked sausage.
  • Mix eggs, half the Cheddar cheese, milk, salt, and pepper into the bowl with the sausage mixture.
  • Grate potatoes and add to the bowl of sausage mixture. Pour mixture into the prepared dish; place remaining Cheddar cheese on top.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until casserole is heated through and cheese is melted and bubbly, about 35 minutes.
