Ingredients
Scale
- 1 pound (450g) pork sausage
- 1 pound (450g) bacon, chopped
- 4 ounces (113g) cream cheese, softened
- ½ cup (120g) sour cream
- 1 cup (240ml) whole milk
- 8 large eggs
- 2 cups (200g) shredded cheddar cheese, divided

- 1 (1-ounce/28g) packet dry ranch seasoning mix
- ½ teaspoon onion powder
- ½ teaspoon garlic powder
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ½ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
Instructions
- In a large skillet over medium-high heat, cook the pork sausage and chopped bacon until browned and fully cooked, about 8–10 minutes. Drain excess fat and set aside.
- In a large bowl, blend softened cream cheese and sour cream until smooth. Add whole milk and crack in the eggs. Mix in ranch seasoning, onion powder, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper until combined.
- Stir in cooked sausage and bacon, followed by thawed hash browns and 1 cup of shredded cheddar cheese. Mix well to combine.
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and lightly grease a 9×13-inch baking dish. Spread the mixture evenly in the dish and top with remaining shredded cheddar cheese.
- Cover with aluminum foil and bake for 50 to 60 minutes. Remove foil and bake for an additional 8 to 10 minutes until cheese is bubbly and golden brown.
- Let the casserole rest for a few minutes before slicing and serving.

For added flavor, consider including sautéed vegetables like onions or bell peppers. For a make-ahead option, assemble the casserole the night before and bake in the morning.
