Ingredients Overview
- 1 package (12-14 oz) kielbasa or smoked sausage, cut into chunks:Â Choose your favorite type of sausage for added flavor. Kielbasa, andouille, or even spicy smoked sausage would work well.
- 1 (32 oz) bag frozen hash browns: Opt for shredded or cubed hash browns. No need to thaw; using them straight from the freezer will help maintain the bake’s texture.
- 1 small onion, diced:Â Adds a sweet, aromatic element to the dish. Yellow or sweet onions work best.
- 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese:Â For that irresistible cheesy layer. Sharp cheddar gives a stronger flavor, but feel free to mix in some Monterey Jack or Colby cheese for extra creaminess.
- ½ cup sour cream: Creates a creamy base and adds tanginess to balance the richness.
- ½ cup milk: Helps thin out the mixture, making the hash browns creamy but not overly thick.
- 1 (10 oz) can cream of mushroom or chicken soup:Â This condensed soup gives the bake its signature creamy consistency. Use whichever flavor you prefer for a subtle difference.
