Easy Sausage Casserole Recipe

Ingredients

• 1 pound sage flavored breakfast sausage
• 3 cups shredded potatoes, drained and pressed
• 0.25 cup butter, melted
• 1 (16 ounce) container small curd cottage cheese
• 12 ounces mild Cheddar cheese, shredded
• 0.5 cup onion, shredded
• 6 jumbo eggs

Instructions

1. Collect all ingredients. Preheat your oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish.
2. Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the sausage in the hot skillet, breaking it apart until it's browned and crumbly, about 5 to 7 minutes. Drain off any excess grease.
3. In the greased baking dish, combine the shredded potatoes and melted butter; press the mixture evenly across the bottom and up the sides of the dish.
4. In a large bowl, mix together the cooked sausage, cottage cheese, Cheddar cheese, diced onion, and eggs. Pour this mixture evenly over the potato base in the baking dish.
5. Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, approximately 1 hour. Allow the casserole to cool for 5 minutes before slicing and serving.
6. Serve and enjoy this hearty casserole!
