Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pound (450g) pork sausage
  • 1 pound (450g) bacon, chopped
  • 4 ounces (113g) cream cheese, softened
  • ½ cup (120g) sour cream
  • 1 cup (240ml) whole milk
  • 8 large eggs
  • 2 cups (200g) shredded cheddar cheese, divided
  • 1 (30-ounce/850g) bag frozen shredded hash browns, thawed and drained
  • 1 (1-ounce/28g) packet dry ranch seasoning mix
  • ½ teaspoon onion powder
  • ½ teaspoon garlic powder
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

Instructions

  1. In a large skillet, over medium-high heat, brown the pork sausage and chopped bacon until fully cooked. Drain excess fat and set the meat aside.
  2. In a mixing bowl, use a hand mixer to blend the softened cream cheese and sour cream until smooth.
  3. Add the whole milk, eggs, ranch seasoning, onion powder, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper to the cream cheese mixture. Whisk until fully combined.
  4. Gently fold in the cooked sausage, bacon, thawed hash browns, and 1 cup of shredded cheddar cheese until everything is mixed well.
  5. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease a 9×13-inch baking dish.
  6. Pour the mixture into the prepared dish, spreading it evenly. Top with the remaining 1 cup of shredded cheddar cheese.
  7. Cover the dish with aluminum foil and bake for 50-60 minutes. Remove the foil and bake for an additional 8-10 minutes until the cheese is bubbly and golden brown.
  8. Allow the casserole to rest for a few minutes before slicing. Serve warm and enjoy!

Notes

For a lighter version, consider swapping in turkey sausage or a dairy alternative.
