We’ve nicknamed this ‘Breakfast Anytime Bliss’—it’s so good, we even make it for dinner!

There’s something so comforting about a hearty casserole, especially when the weather starts to cool down here in the Midwest. This sausage and hash brown casserole is one of those dishes that feels like a warm hug after a long day. It’s a recipe I picked up from my mom, who would often make it for Sunday brunch. It’s perfect for feeding a crowd or meal prepping for the week ahead. The combination of savory sausage, crispy hash browns, and creamy cheese is simply irresistible. Plus, it’s super easy to throw together, making it ideal for busy weeknights or lazy weekends.

This casserole pairs beautifully with a simple green salad or some roasted vegetables to balance out the richness. If you’re serving it for brunch, consider adding a side of fresh fruit or a light yogurt parfait. A nice crusty bread would also be a great addition to soak up all the delicious flavors.
