I made this the other morning for a group of friends...we had mismosas and bloody marry's with it and it was great! I added fresh onion, mushrooms and green peppers when browning the sausage. It added both nice flavor and color. Next time I will add a little heat with either a salsa or fresh jalepenos.

I made this for an Easter brunch at church and got rave reviews. There weren't even crumbs left in the bottom of the pan! I like making it when I have company, and the mix of potatoes, sausage, and cheese with the eggs is just perfect. Thank you!

This is a fantastic dish. I never heard of spring onions, so substituted green onions. Please Let me know what a spring onion is. Belly Up With Bob
