Loaded Sausage Hashbrown Casserole
Skyler walked in from being gone all day and found this casserole ready to eat and said “YES!!!” He loves funeral potatoes and so this version definitely hit the spot. They are like funeral potatoes with the addition of sausage. They are very hearty, filling and delicious!
Ingredients/Substitution Ideas
- Jimmy Dean Sausage
- Finely Chopped Onion
- Frozen Hashbrowns
- Kosher Salt
- Black Pepper
- Garlic Powder
- Sour Cream
- Melted Butter
- Cream of Chicken Soup–or cream of mushroom
- Shredded Cheddar Cheese–I like sharp
Steps
Heat oven to 350° F.
Heat a skillet over medium high heat. Add in the sausage and break it up. Add in the onions. Brown for about 5 minutes, until cooked through. Set aside.
In a large bowl add the hashbrowns, salt, pepper, garlic powder, sour cream, butter, cream of chicken soup and half of the cheese. Stir in the sausage.
Spray a 9×13 inch pan with non-stick cooking spray. Add the hashbrown mixture into the pan. Sprinkle the remaining cheese on top.
Bake for 45-55 minutes, until hot and bubbly.
Serve and enjoy!
Notes/Tips
- Serve with a green salad or some steamed broccoli.
- I halved the recipe by cutting all ingredients in half and using a 9×9 inch baking dish instead of a 9×13.
- Make this ahead of time by assembling the casserole, cover it with foil and refrigerating up to 24 hours, then bake an extra 5–10 minutes.
- If you want crispy edges, bake uncovered the whole time. If you’d rather have it softer then cover with foil for all but the last 15 minutes.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container* in the refrigerator for up to 4 days or in the freezer for up to 3 months.
- Other recipes you can make with sour cream are Instant Pot Mexican Sour Cream Rice and Instant Pot Sour Cream Noodle Bake.
