Breakfast Casserole In The Crock Pot

• 1 (26 ounce) bag frozen hash browns
• 12 eggs
• 1/2 cup milk
• 1 tablespoon ground mustard
• 16 ounces sausage (maple, sage or regular sausage.)
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 16 ounces shredded cheddar cheese
• 2 garlic cloves (minced)
• 1 large onion (sliced)
• 1/2 teaspoon pepper
• 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg

1. Spray crock pot and evenly spread hash browns at the bottom.
2. Crack 12 eggs in a large bowl.
3. Mix well (and slowly) using a whisk.
4. Add the milk.
5. Go ahead and sprinkle in the ground mustard. This might sound like a weird ingredient, but I've come to love (and use) this in most of my recipes.
6. Add plenty of salt, the nutmeg and lots of fresh pepper. Mix well and set aside.
7. Cook the sausage on high heat, drain and set aside. Using the leftover fat from the sausage, saute the garlic and onions until translucent.
8. Add sausage, onions and garlic on top of hash browns.
9. Is this enough cheese? Maybe? Probably. Throw the whole big bag in there.
10. Mix it up well. Or good, depending on where you're from.
11. Pour the egg mixture over everything in the crock pot. Using a wood spoon, even everything out so it's spread evenly.
12. Turn the crock pot on low for 5-7 hours. Crockpots vary so yours may need more or less time.
