Layer half of the frozen hash browns evenly across the bottom of the slow cooker. Top with half of the diced ham, bell peppers, and green onions. Sprinkle with half of the shredded cheese. Season lightly with salt and pepper. (10 minutes)

Pour the egg mixture evenly over the layers in the slow cooker, ensuring that everything is moistened. (2 minutes)

06

Step
8 hrs

Cover the slow cooker and cook on Low setting for 7-8 hours, or until the eggs are fully set and the casserole is cooked through. (7-8 hours)

07

Step
2 mins

Once cooked, garnish with fresh chives, if desired. Serve warm and enjoy! (2 minutes)

For a crispier top, you can broil the casserole for a few minutes after cooking. Be sure to keep a close eye on it to prevent burning!
Feel free to customize this casserole with your favorite vegetables! Mushrooms, spinach, or zucchini would all be delicious additions.
If you don't have almond milk on hand, you can substitute it with regular milk or cream.
This casserole is also great for meal prepping! Store leftovers in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
