Submitted by jessi_mcg

"I found this on a card at the grocery store and wanted to post for safekeeping. It sounds a lot like Cracker Barrel hash brown casserole with a bit of meat to make it a meal! Decadent and yummy!! I am making a few adjustments based on our preferences, but will put the original recipe in parentheses."

After seeing all the photos of this recipe I had to make and review it for Family Picks during ZWT8. This is great comfort food and we will make it again! DH couldnt find turkey smoked sausage so he bought regular and I used unsalted butter instead of the Smart Balance spread. Thank you for sharing this recipe with us smellyvegetarian!

This is like dream come true comfort food !! I diced up my own potatoes into tiny pieces as we cannot get frozen hash browns here and my sausages were gluten free. Too yummy for words !! Made for ZWT8.
