Delicious as written but easy to modify with ingredients of your choice, this sausage, potato, and egg casserole is enough to feed a crowd and leftovers can be frozen, too!

Ingredients

cooking spray
5 medium potatoes, peeled and cubed
1 1/2 pounds breakfast sausage
6 ounces chorizo sausage
1 1/2 large green bell peppers, chopped
1 large onion, chopped
2 (4 ounce) cans sliced mushrooms, drained
20 large eggs
1/2 cup milk
1 cup shredded Cheddar cheese

Directions

1 Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Grease an 11x13-inch baking dish with cooking spray.
2 Place cubed potatoes in a large microwave-safe bowl and partially cover with a lid. Microwave on high for 4 minutes. Remove from the microwave and spread on the bottom of the prepared baking dish.
3 Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook and stir breakfast and chorizo sausage in the hot skillet until browned and crumbly, 5 to 7 minutes. Drain and discard grease. Add bell peppers, onion, and mushrooms. Saute until bell peppers and onion are softened, about 5 minutes. Spread mixture over the potatoes.
4 Beat eggs in a bowl and add milk. Pour beaten eggs over everything in the baking dish and move around a bit with a spoon to evenly disperse. Sprinkle Cheddar cheese over top until well covered. Cover with aluminum foil.
5 Bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes. Remove foil and bake until egg is set, about 1 more hour. If cheese starts to brown too much, cover again with foil for the rest of the baking time.
