Crock Pot Western Omelet Casserole

I followed others suggestions to use sausage instead of ham, and the hash browns with the bell pepper and onion already in them. I cooked it 11 hours, and the potatoes were squishy and the bottom was burnt. Even so, I received several compliments at the potluck I took it to, and most of it was eaten. I did add some sour cream to the milk/egg mixture to help keep the eggs soft and moist. I think in the future I will add some spices, and cook it for a shorter time.

This was a good recipe that did not need any extra salt at all. I used hashbrowns with onions and green peppers already in it. I also used a couple more eggs and sausage instead of the ham. I had many people say they liked it. I made it for Christmas Breakfast and it was very nice to have breakfast already done. I think my husband and brother liked it more then I did. Thank you.

I halved this recipe, and found that it was overcooked and a little dry but otherwise it was good. I used diced potatoes instead of hash browns. Instead of breakfast, I served this as a quick supper. Will try it again using the full recipe.

I make this recipe every Christmas Eve for Christmas breakfast, though with modifications. Instead of the ham, I use Italian sausage, bulk (or casings removed), browned and drained. I also add a red bell pepper, and some Italian seasoning (maybe 1-2 Tbs) to the egg mixture. It's so easy and I love having breakfast ready on Christmas morning. Whenever we have guests for Christmas breakfast, I also make an overnight french toast and serve it all with fresh fruit, orange juice and coffee. A deliciously easy feast! My husband looks forward to it all year!

My family ate it all as the flavor was pretty good. I used sausage instead of ham--very good. The egg/hashbrown consistency was a little mushy.
