Sausage, Egg and Cheese Bake

Hash browns, sausage, eggs and two kinds of cheese with some half and half equals a delicious dish. Whether you have it for breakfast, bunch or brinner (breakfast for dinner) it is sure to be hit.

Since my family enjoys things spicy I used hot sausage, but if you are not like us go ahead and use mild sausage.
