How to Make Low Fat Hash Browns Casserole

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 13 x 9-inch baking dish.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together 6 large eggs, 1 (12-ounce) can of evaporated fat-free milk, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon black pepper.
  3. Add 4 cups shredded hash browns (thawed if frozen), 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese, 1/2 cup chopped onion, 1/2 cup chopped bell pepper (any color), and 1 cup diced cooked ham.
  4. Gently mix all ingredients until well combined. Do not overmix.
  5. Pour the mixture into the prepared baking dish and spread evenly.
  6. Bake for 60-65 minutes, or until the casserole is set and golden brown on top. A knife inserted into the center should come out clean.
  7. Let cool for 10-15 minutes before serving. Enjoy!
