Velveeta Breakfast Casserole is a family style breakfast casserole recipe that is perfect for Sunday morning when you have time to enjoy a family breakfast. Layers of crispy hash brown patties, crumbled breakfast sausage, cubes of cheese and egg make this a hearty breakfast casserole everyone will love.
Bake hash brown patties as instructed on the package. Flip them over mid way through and if they are not extra crispy bake an additional 10 minutes.
While the hash brown patties are cooking fry the sausage until cooked through and crumble. Drain on a paper towel.
Grease the baking dish and line the bottom with the cooked hash brown patties in a single layer.
In a large bowl mix the eggs, sour cream, salsa and salt and pepper. Mix well so the sour cream is combined well and not floating in lumps with the eggs.
Add the crumbled sausage and the cubes of Velveeta Cheese to the mixing bowl.
Mix well so the sausage and cheese is evenly distributed.
Pour the mixture over the hash brown patties in the 9 x 13 baking dish. Spread the sausage and cheese evenly over the top.
Bake in a 350 degree oven for 40 to 50 minutes until the eggs are set in the middle and the cheese is bubbling.
