  2. Cook the pork sausage in a skillet over medium heat until browned and fully cooked, about 8-10 minutes. Drain excess grease.
  3. In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, black pepper, and garlic powder until smooth and slightly frothy.
  4. Spread the thawed hash browns evenly across the bottom of the greased baking dish, then layer the cooked sausage and cheddar cheese on top.
  5. Pour the egg mixture over the layers in the baking dish, ensuring all ingredients are well coated.

  7. Allow to cool for 5-10 minutes before slicing and serving.
