Instructions:
- Prepare the Oven and Pan: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a 9×13-inch baking dish or casserole dish.
- Cook the Sausage: In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the sausage until fully browned, breaking it into crumbles as it cooks. Drain any excess grease and set aside.
- Prepare Cauliflower “Hash Browns”: Grate or rice the cauliflower if it isn’t already. You can either add it raw to the casserole for a softer texture or lightly sauté it in a pan for a crispier base.
- Assemble the Casserole: In the prepared baking dish, layer the cauliflower evenly. Sprinkle the cooked sausage on top, followed by 1 cup of shredded cheese and green onions.
- Make the Egg Mixture: In a mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, heavy cream, salt, and pepper until well combined. Pour this mixture over the casserole ingredients in the baking dish, making sure it’s evenly distributed.
- Top with Cheese: Sprinkle the remaining cheese over the top of the casserole.
- Bake: Place the casserole in the preheated oven and bake for 30-35 minutes or until the eggs are set, the cheese is melted, and the top is golden.
- Serve: Allow the casserole to cool for a few minutes before slicing. Garnish with additional green onions if desired.
