Crockpot Breakfast Casserole - Wouldn't it be nice to wake up to a nice warm breakfast? This crockpot breakfast casserole is perfect just for that very reason.

Servings: 8
Prep Time: 15 minutes
Cooking Time: 6-8 hours

Ingredients:
dozen eggs
1 lb. of sausage (I use HOT)
1 can of Rotel tomatoes
1 onion; finely chopped
4 cups of frozen hashbrowns
3 cups of shredded cheese (I used Mexican blend)
Tabasco

Wouldn't it be nice to wake up to a nice warm breakfast? This crockpot breakfast casserole is perfect just for that very reason.

Directions:
1. Brown sausage and onions. As sausage is cooking chopped it up with a spatula. You want to sausage finely chopped. I always run mine through the food processor after it’s browned.
2. Thaw hashbrowns, enough to get moisture out. I wrapped mine in a clean towel and squeezed out all the moisture.
3. Scramble the dozen eggs. Add salt and pepper and Tabasco.
4. In your large bowl mix the hashbrowns, Rotel, and sausage together and pour into the bottom of the crockpot. Spread evenly.
5. Pour the eggs over top of hashbrown mixture and top with cheese.
6. Cook on low for 6-8 hours.

    I have never made a breakfast in a casserole. Yours looks mighty spicy.. I am quite the opposite. Looks like a smart dish to have ready for Christmas morning.

      The tomatoes give it that red coloring. This isn’t too spicy, but you could always use regular sausage.

    I made breakfast tacos the same way you make your casserole. I just scoop the finished product out and wrap in a warm tortilla. It’s great. I love the way the house smells when I cook it. I’m sure your recipe smells great too!

    I made a slow-cooker, breakfast casserole last year for Christmas! I love putting it on and waking up to breakfast already done! I may make it again this year. Glad you enjoyed it!

    Breakfast in the crock pot? GENIUS! I love having a hearty meal first thing in the morning that I don’t have to “watch” too closely.
