Country Casserole




Years ago we stayed at Phipps Inn in Hudson, WI & really loved it, especially love that they offer the option of breakfast delivered to your room! They have a number of recipes posted on their website, but no pictures, so they aren't Pinterest ready. I made this casserole while on vacation and was impressed with how easy and how good it was. I changed a few things from the original recipe. I liked it with or without the salsa. As usual, I add more cheese than they do...I can't say how much more cuz I just add what looks good to me. Most of the extra cheese I added to the top of the dish.

Phipps Inn Country Casserole

16 ounces bulk breakfast sausage
1/2 choppped onion
2 lbs. Southern style frozen hash browns        
8 ounces shredded Mexican blend cheese
(If you want it to taste more Mexican to go with the salsa, use taco cheese instead of Mexican blend.)
8 ounces shredded cheddar cheese
2 cups milk
1 tsp. seasoning salt such as Lawry’s
½ tsp. dry mustard
6 large eggs
Paprika
Salsa

Brown sausage and onion and drain. In a very large bowl, combine sausage, hash browns (do not have to be thawed), the Mexican cheese and half of the cheddar cheese. Beat eggs, milk and seasonings for about a minute with a hand mixer, then combine with the sausage and egg mixture. Pour into a greased 9x13 glass baking dish, top with remaining cheddar cheese, sprinkle with paprika, cover and refrigerate overnight. Remove from refrigerator about 2 hours before serving to come to room temperature. Bake for 55-60 minutes at 350 degrees. Let stand 10 minutes. Serve with salsa.
