Today's Sunday brunch is Hot Stuff!!!

Potatoes O’Brien Casserole

2 - 3 cups shredded potatoes (I cheat by buying the premade stuff, but you can do this from scratch if you like)

1 roll hot pork sausage

1 -2 cups sharp cheddar cheese, shredded (you can also other types to suit your personal taste or for more pow) Again I like to cheat by using the pre shredded stuff

2-3 Green, Red, Orange, or Yellow bell peppers chopped ( I like to use a mix of all 4 if I have them)

1 medium yellow onion chopped

1/4 cup green onions

6 large eggs

1 can of evaporated milk

1/2 teaspoon freshly ground pepper (Everyone should use freshly ground pepper if you can)

1/8 teaspoon salt (optional)

 

Directions:

Preheat oven to 375°. 

Start by browning the pork sausage.  When it is almost completely browned add peppers and yellow onion to the mix and continue to cook until sausage is browned and peppers are slightly softened.  Set aside to cool (about 5 – 10 minutes).

Butter a 2" deep casserole dish.

Arrange potatoes evenly in the bottom of the casserole dish. 

Layer the sausage mixture over potatoes.  Next layer the green onions.  Lastly sprinkle the cheese over everything. 

Beat together the eggs, milk, salt and pepper then pour over potato mixture. 

Bake uncovered for 1 hour until center is set

Let rest for 5 minutes before slicing.
