Напрямки

Preheat oven to 375.

Sauté onion and garlic in olive oil over medium heat. Once softened, add in mushrooms and peppers.

When vegetables are finished sautéing add to casserole dish and chop chicken sausage. In a separate bowl, whisk together egg whites, milk and whole eggs.

Gently pour egg mixture in casserole dish. Add in fennel seed, paprika and cumin. Sprinkle monetary jack cheese and half of cheddar cheese on top. Cover with foil and bake for 35 minutes.

While casserole is baking, combine shredded hashbrowns, garlic powder and other half of cheddar cheese. If you are using frozen hash browns (I did) remove from freezer, rinse with cold water (until thawed) and then ring out water.

When the casserole is finished baking in the oven, remove foil and sprinkle on hashbrown mixture to top. Set broiler to low for 5 minutes or until hashbrowns are crispy on top.
