How to Make Cheesy Breakfast Casserole in a Crock Pot
Aunt Lou here.
This Crock Pot Cheesy Breakfast Casserole recipe is pretty easy to throw together. The “hardest” part of this recipe is not really hard. It just takes a bit of time, and that is frying up the bacon. However, if you want to throw this together quickly one morning, you can fry up your bacon the night before and dice your onion. That would make this a dump, stir and go recipe!
While I was putting this recipe together, Ryder said I should call this recipe the Your Saturday Morning Breakfast. You see, special breakfasts on Saturday mornings are a tradition around our hose. And this recipe had tons of his favorite ingredients in it, so he thought it was pretty special. However, once Ryder tried this, he deemed it “The best recipe you have ever made Mom!”
A little side note, my store only had a 26 oz bag of frozen shredded hash browns, so I have not tried this with a 32 oz bag, but think it should work if you want to give it a try.

I’m trying this recipe tonight but have one question . In the general directions at the top of the page under time needed it says 2 hours on low. In the directions on the recipe card thing it says 2 hours on high. Can anyone that has made this tell me which one it is? Thanks.
I’m so sorry about that Linda! It was a typo in the post. I have fixed it. You will want to cook it for around 2 hours on high. As always, be sure to watch it closely the first time you make it to adjust the timing as needed for your specific slow cooker. Enjoy!
This looks good…is there anyway to add scrambled egss to the dish without drying them out?
Hi Steve!
If you look at this recipe (https://www.recipesthatcrock.com/crock-pot-taco-breakfast-casserole/) you can see how we added eggs to the mix and let them cook with the rest of the casserole. I hope this helps!

Would this recipe work with sausage ?
Hi Lisa!
I haven’t tried this recipe with sausage, but think it would be a great addition! If you give it a try, let me know how it turns out!
