INGREDIENTS

  • Protein

    • 12 links Johnsonville® Original breakfast sausage
    • 🥚 6 large eggs, lightly beaten
  • Dairy

    • 🧀 2 cups shredded 4-cheese Mexican blend cheese
  • Vegetables

    • ¼ cup chopped red bell pepper
    • 1 teaspoon chopped fresh chives
  • Grains & Starches

    • 3 cups frozen country style shredded hash brown potatoes, thawed
  • Condiments & Seasonings

    • 🧈 3 tablespoons butter, melted
    • 🧂 ⅛ teaspoon salt

STEPS

1

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Grease a 12-cup muffin pan.

2

Heat a nonstick skillet over medium-low heat. Add sausage links and cook, turning frequently, until well browned, 12 to 16 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read 160 degrees F (70 degrees C).

3

While the sausage is cooking, mix hash browns, melted butter, salt, and pepper together in a bowl until well combined. Press mixture into the bottom and sides of the prepared muffin cups.

4

Bake in the preheated oven until lightly browned, about 12 minutes.

5

Cut sausage into 1/2-inch pieces. Stir cheese, beaten eggs, and bell pepper together in a bowl.

6

Remove hash brown crusts from the oven. Divide sausage between crusts, then spoon egg mixture over top. Sprinkle with chives.

7

Return to the oven and bake until set, 13 to 15 minutes.
