Ingredients
  • For the Hash Brown Crust:

  • 3 links turkey Italian sausage, cooked and chopped

Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 425
  2. In a cool oven-proof skillet - wipe surface with olive oil.
  3. Mix potatoes with 2 Tbs. corn starch. Press potatoes into pan using a back of a measuring cup to form a crust. Bake for 20 minutes until edges of pototoes are crisp. Remove from oven. Reduce oven to 375
  4. In a medium bowl, crack the eggs and whisk to lightly beat. Add ½ cup milk, ½ teaspoon salt, ⅛ teaspoon pepper and ½ teaspoon dried basil. Whisk lightly to combine.
  5. Layer ingredients on top of crust. Top with egg mixture. Crumble goat cheese and sprinkle mozzarella to distribute.
  6. Place skillet on medium-high heat, cook 6-7 minutes, until the filling heats and eggs begin to set.
  7. Return skillet to the oven, bake 15-20 minutes. Ready when top is golden brown and filling is set.
  8. Cut into wedges, and serve with warm marinara sauce spooned over the top.
