Instructions
 

Preparation

  • Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease a 9x13 inch baking dish.
  • Sauté diced bell peppers and onions until softened, then cook and crumble the breakfast sausage.
  • Whisk eggs, milk, and heavy cream together in a large bowl, seasoning with salt, pepper, garlic, and onion powder.
  • Combine ricotta cheese, Parmesan, one egg, salt, pepper, and chopped chives in a separate bowl.

Assembly

  • Place a layer of hash brown patties in the greased dish, covering the bottom.
  • Spread half of the ricotta mixture over the hash browns, then sprinkle with half of the cooked sausage, peppers, and onions.
  • Pour half of the egg mixture over these layers, then sprinkle with half of the shredded cheddar and Monterey Jack cheese.
  • Repeat all layers with the remaining ingredients.
  • Sprinkle paprika on top.

Baking and Serving

  • Cover and bake for 30 minutes, then remove foil and bake for another 15-25 minutes until golden and set.
  • Let the lasagna rest for 5-10 minutes before slicing and serving.

Notes

For extra crispiness, you can lightly pre-bake the hash brown patties before assembling the lasagna. To make ahead, assemble the lasagna the night before and refrigerate. Add an additional 10-15 minutes to the covered baking time if baking from cold. Leftovers can be reheated in the oven or microwave.
