        <\/span>Notes<\/span><\/h3>
        The casserole can be assembled and baked immediately or covered and refrigerated up to two days before baking. If using pasteurized egg product, it can be prepared 3 days in advance.<\/span>
        <\/div>\nIf the casserole is refrigerated overnight, remove it from the fridge 30 minutes before baking. It may require an extra 10-15 minutes of cooking time.<\/span>
        <\/div>\nEvaporated milk can be substituted with 1 1\/3 cups of light cream, milk or non-dairy milk of your choice.<\/span>
        <\/div>\n
        <\/span>Bryan’s Notes:<\/span><\/h5>\nWe made this for New Year’s Day 2023 breakfast. Linda did some preparation, including cooking the sausage, the night before; I finished the preparation and cooking that morning. We halved the recipe, using a smaller casserole dish, used just \u00bd a red bell pepper, 4 eggs, and milk instead of the evaporated milk. That gave us just the right amount for the two of us, with some leftovers, perhaps for tomorrow’s breakfast. It was definitely a ‘keeper’ recipe!<\/span>
        <\/div>\nWe were thinking of adding mushrooms and asparagus to the recipe, but didn’t (I forgot). We think adding vegetables is almost always a good idea. Something to try for next time we make this.<\/span><\/div><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":2664,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"wprm-recipe-roundup-name":"","wprm-recipe-roundup-description":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[134,618,362,1598,697],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-2667","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-american","category-baked","category-breakfast-brunch","category-bryans-favorites","category-stove-top"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/bhiggs.x10hosting.com\/foodie\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/2-Hashbrown-Breakfast-Casserole-SpendWithPennies-27.jpg","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/bhiggs.x10hosting.com\/foodie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2667","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/bhiggs.x10hosting.com\/foodie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/bhiggs.x10hosting.com\/foodie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/bhiggs.x10hosting.com\/foodie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/bhiggs.x10hosting.com\/foodie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2667"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/bhiggs.x10hosting.com\/foodie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2667\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":2668,"href":"https:\/\/bhiggs.x10hosting.com\/foodie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2667\/revisions\/2668"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/bhiggs.x10hosting.com\/foodie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/2664"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/bhiggs.x10hosting.com\/foodie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2667"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/bhiggs.x10hosting.com\/foodie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=2667"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/bhiggs.x10hosting.com\/foodie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=2667"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
