Total Time: 1 hour
Servings: 8

Ingredients

  • 6 cups frozen hash brown potatoes I used the cubed potatoes with peppers – not the shredded
  • 10 large eggs beaten
  • 1 cup milk
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 2 teaspoons crushed red pepper
  • 1 cup fresh basil chopped
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1 teaspoon thyme
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • 1 jar roasted red pepper cut into small pieces
  • 1 ½ cup shredded mozzarella
  • 4 ounces feta crumbled
  • 3 Tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon minced garlic or 2 cloves chopped
  • 1 pint grape tomatoes halved
  • 4 scallions thinly sliced both the white and green parts
  • 8 oz bag spinach
  • Sour cream for serving optional
  • Salsa for serving – highly recommend this as a garnishment

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
  • Spray a 9×13 inch baking dish with nonstick cooking spray (or butter).
  • In a skillet with a few tablespoons of olive oil cook potatoes for 5-7 minutes – I like mine to be a little crispy when I put them in the casserole.
  • Arrange potatoes evenly in the bottom of the dish.
  • Combine egg mixture ingredients in a large bowl, stir well and set aside.
  • In a medium skillet heat 3 T olive oil and garlic, tomatoes and scallions for 5 minutes. Add spinach to the sauté and cook for 2 additional minutes (spinach should be bright green – do not overcook)
  • Combine vegetables with the egg mixture and pour over hash browns. Bake uncovered for 40 to 45 minutes or until a knife inserted near the center comes out clean. Let stand 10 minutes before garnishing with sour cream and salsa.

Notes

Make ahead: This casserole can be made ahead of time up until right before baking and refrigerated for up to 24 hours. Bake according to directions when ready.
