Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 1 lb ground breakfast sausage Use turkey or plant-based sausage for a leaner option.
  • 8 large eggs
  • 1 cup cottage cheese 4% or low-fat both work; Greek yogurt can substitute for a tangier flavor.
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper
  • 3 cups frozen shredded hash browns No need to thaw.
  • 3 oz crumbled feta OR shredded cheddar cheese About 1/2 oz per container.

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease six oven-safe small containers.
  2. Heat a skillet over medium heat and add the ground breakfast sausage. Brown thoroughly, breaking it into small crumbles. Drain off any excess oil and set the sausage aside.
  3. In a blender or large bowl, combine the eggs, cottage cheese, salt, and black pepper. Blend or whisk until smooth and slightly frothy.
  4. Divide the frozen shredded hash browns evenly among the six containers, pressing down slightly to form a base.
  5. Spoon the crumbled sausage over the hash browns.
  6. Pour the egg mixture over each assembled bowl so the liquid reaches just below the top rim.
  7. Sprinkle about 1/2 ounce of your chosen cheese on each.
Cooking
  1. Place the containers on a baking sheet and bake at 350°F for 25 minutes, or until the eggs are set and the tops are lightly golden.
  2. Let the bowls cool slightly if serving immediately, or cool completely before sealing with lids for storage.

Notes

Store in the refrigerator for up to 5 days or freeze for longer storage. Reheat as needed.
