Cheesy Breakfast Potatoes

This was a delicious way to start the day! This was a variation on the Cowboy Scramble we enjoy regularly for a hearty weekend breakfast and a great way to use Ore-Ida's tasty hash browns. This has a great combination of vegetables, tender and crispy potatoes, and tasty sausage - the cheese ties it all together and makes this both very filling, and quite the treat as well! My son and I like this with a fried egg on the side and a little bit of ketchup to dip the potato mixture in.
