Merry Christmas! I made the Hash-brown, sausage, egg cheesy casserole and it was yummy! I made it Christmas Eve evening, stored it in the fridge and baked it Christmas morning. I used the O’Brien potato hash browns but still chose to add more onion & red bell pepper. It came out really good, delicious. My husband loved it. And my 92 yo Pop did, too. Thank you, Mandy. You’re the best 👍🏼
Five Oaks restaurant is actually in Sevierville, Tennessee but they have a sister restaurant called Crockett Breakfast Camp in Gatlinburg, Tennessee. Both serve the huge cinnamon rolls.
Love making breakfast casseroles…..I haven’t been able to find the Ore-Ida Pitatoes O’Brien for the longest in any of my grocery stores…..I use them to make not only the casseroles but also a potato omelet & potato soup…..
Mandy I use Tator Tots. I put them in my baking dish and slip that in the oven to bake while I shower. Then I take them out of the oven and mash them onto the pan and up the sides a little then add all of my other ingredients and put it back in the oven until done.
My most memorable Christmas was several years back even though we all live within thirty minutes of each other, we decided to all spend the night at my oldest son’s new home. Christmas Eve we opened presents and ate finger foods. Christmas morning it’s our tradition to make sausage balls and sausage bread. We then cooked our big Christmas meal but for the life of me I can’t remember what that was. It’s usually chicken sausage gumbo or steaks on the grill. I cooked in the kitchen off and on and we played games. It was cold outside so we warmed by the fireplace. We had so much fun. I’ll never forget that Christmas! I’m happy we all had the time together bc in 2019 my husband and Dad to our three sons died with brain cancer.
It seems like everytime i put an order it for the Obrien potatoes, they are either out, or un out before my order gets filled and the want to sub with plain hashbrowns. So....I check at least the a week and when they have them in, I get someone to pick up 2 or 3 bags for the freezer. I Love Them.
I may comment again but first YES, I have not been able to find Hash Browns in either of the 2 grocery stores in my area in months. Been wanting to make hash Brown waffles forever. Maybe this week, Christmas miracle.
We are big on weekend brunch. Sometimes we cook. Sometimes we go to a restaurant. If you have a snooze eatery close by, I highly recommend. Thank you for the recipes.
I made the French toast for our Christmas breakfast and instead of regular maple syrup I used Cinnabon syrup and it was so good! My husband loved it. Have a wonderful holiday.
5 oaks farms has the best breakfasts! So reasonably priced for a tourist town too. As a local this is where we eat too! Try the fried bologna Benedict with red eye gravy
They both looked delicious. I think I will make the Hashbrown Casserole for Christmas morning. I loved getting to see the always beautiful Miss Gracie Lou. I hope you all had a very Merry Christmas and we'll see y'all next time.
Haha! I'm with Steven: "Christmas? Tomorrow!" You certainly can't say you don't have an appreciative audience at your table. Cheers and Merry Christmas from Sandy Eggo.
Mandy, we usually do supper but this year, my grandson has to work so we are doing Christmas brunch. I am roasting a big ham, biscuits and sausage gravy and yes, I am making both of these yummy looking recipes with some cut fruit. Thank you because I was struggling with the menu, and you saved me. I just bought everything to make both casseroles. :)
Looks delicious. This Christmas my family and I are absolutely broke. Recently our truck got stolen and stripped. People be grateful for what you have this Christmas. Family
I buy dehydrated hash browns in a carton (like the old milk cartons) I order them from Sams Club. You have to rehydrate them for a few minutes,but they are good.
I make my Hashbrown Casserole with Shredded Hashbrowns and lots of them, Sausage, Bacon, or Ham lots of Onions, Bell Peppers, Eggs with lots of Cheese! I love that Gooey melted Cheese! Always use Sharp Cheese! I layer the Hashbrowns, Pepoers and onions mixed, and then add Sausage. I make a sausage Gravy and pour over the Hashbrowns n everything! Then I add the Eggs and top with Cheese! I make Biscuits and fill with Homemade Jelly or Jam. Y'all, I'm telling you that this might not sound good with the Gravy on it but, it knocks it way over the top! Or you can serve the Gravy with your Biscuits on the side. Either way, this Breakfast is Simple and So Delicious! The messier and gooeyer, the Better! I always got to make Homemade Biscuits to go with our meals anyway! They're simple to make but Oh So Delicious! My Momma always made us a huge Breakfast on Christmas morning and I have for 60 years done it for my Children, Grandchildren, and Great Grandchildren n Babies! Thank you Mandy for your Recipe! Serve up Biscuits Toast or some kind of Bread with your Breakfast! Merry Christmas Y'all from N Georgia Mtns... God Bless. 🙏🙏❤❤🎄🎄🎁🎁🍭🍭
I had planned to make cinnamon rolls anyway so I decided to turn it into the casserole. It looks good and I know my husband will enjoy it. Have a blessed Christmas.
An amazing Christmas present would be a video with Mandy in the making and her husband Steven and Jessica and her husband Bunkey..the Common -tater and Bunkey in one video. Can you imagine what they would cook up
Hashbrown casserole. Growing up, we always had a big "Sunday breakfast" at my grandma's with of LOTS of biscuits and gravy with fried eggs, bacon, sausage links, and cubed up tomatoes (also with gravy on them). Like seriously, my grandma made at least 24 GOOD size biscuits by hand for 10 people and they were GONE off the stove before she even sat down.
@@MandyintheMaking Another thing I'll always remember is how she raised 9 kids with 6 being boys and most lived out of state and if her phone rang on Christmas Day, she would always answer by saying "Merry Christmas!" no matter who it was on the other end. And this was before Caller ID was ever a thing. It could've been a long lost cousin from Timbuktu calling to check in and she didn't care. It was the best.
I made the savory one for Christmas Day. My recipe called for potatoes o'brien and dry mustard. I also used the bacon pieces instead of sausage from Sam's Club. Both of your recipes look yummy!
Funny story about the making of the sausage/hashbrown casserole. It's lunch time Christmas Eve. Oldest son & his son are here from GA. I'm putting out the fixings for hoagies and also browning the sausage to make the casserole. That got cooked and I made my sammich and left the kitchen to eat. People and mostly guys were coming and going. I got back out to the kitchen, looked at the sausage and it looked different - not nearly as much as should have been there. I discovered that 2 of the grandsons (in their 20s) thought the sausage was part of lunch and had put it on their hoagies!!!! Oh my! I cooked up some bacon to supplement the sausage. I'm sure it will be good in the morning!!!
Yumm! I usually make caramel pecan sticky buns for Christmas. Maybe I'll add crumbled bacon to them as well this year. Blessings and Merry Christmas from Oregon❣
We always do cinnamon rolls for Christmas morning. So I think we would like that one. But the other one also sounds great and like Steven said be good for breakfast and dinner.
These both look good. I made a Monte Cristo casserole the other day, and that has been requested for Christmas morning. 🎄 Merry Christmas to you and your men. ❤
Mandee, can't wait to try these 2 recipes, they look amazing! Merry Christmas to you and your family my dear!!! I love your channel and watch all the time.
I will be making both of these after Christmas, both are too big to eat being we eat Christmas meal at 12pm, regardless they look sooo yummy, Thanks for sharing. I hope you had a fun time at Esquire place, I live 35min, from there, not been though. Have a good rest of week😊
I and my family, visited a neighborhood with those "flash to the music" lights. Interestingly, the little kids didn't catch on! But the display was amazing! Put me right into the Christmas spirit.
The cinnamon roll casserole sounds delicious. I will be making that one soon. However, I always make strata for Christmas morning. Same idea as the hash browns, but you use bread cubes instead. I add red and green veggies, sausage, Parmesan cheese and Dijon mustard. Always make it ahead and bake on Christmas morning.
I'm making the cinnamon roll one on eve cuz I have all the things! No grocery trip required!! I kinda make the other already on Christmas. But we use bacon or ham whatever we feeling! I always cook the meat b4 hand and chop the vegs so it's easy assembling.vnever though of doing it all so it's just pop n the oven! Umm time saver you are my friend lol❤
Thank you for these delicious recipes and ALL the other ones throughout the year! Wishing you and your entire family a very MERRY CHRISTMAS and a safe, healthy, happy and BLESSED NEW YEAR! ❄⛄🎄⛄❄
I will be making the cinnamon roll one on Christmas Eve morning and the hash brown one for Christmas morning and possibly both for New Year’s Day morning! Lol 😂 It’s just my husband and myself this year but we love to eat and if someone stops in...I’m all set up for them! Merry Christmas and the happiest of New Year ever for you and your beautiful family! 🎄🎅🏻🥰💕🙏🎊
I am going to try that hash brown, sausage overnight bake. I have been planning to make some kind of overnight casserole and this is the best looking one I have seen. Wishing you all the best of Christmases and a happy, blessed and healthy new year.
Mandy, they both look delicious! I make the hash brown casserole nearly every year. I do use the shredded hash browns, with some diced sweet onion and press those into a 9 x 13 casserole dish. I melt a stick of butter and drizzle it all over the top. Then I load it up, usually with ham, chopped fresh asparagus, mushrooms, grated cheese ( I combine sharp white cheddar with Swiss ) and some chopped red pepper. Beat 8 eggs with milk and salt and pepper, pour over the top. Because the butter is drizzled over the potatoes in the bottom of the dish, they get a nice brown crisp on them. Merry Christmas to you and yours!
Thank you for being a friend 😊 I love the Golden Girls, I still watch them. It's been hard for me to find shredded hashbrowns or any hashbrowns since covid started, so when I find them and I have the money, I stock up 😀
I am going to make these at other times. My kids and grandkids are stuck on our Christmas morning crepes tradition. As for Sicily, it's gorgeous. My mom was born there.
Hi Mandy. About the Christmas lights in Tryon, NC, our sons and daughter-in-law went with me around the Christmas 2019 (when we lived in Shelby, NC). It was nice, just make sure you have enough gas. I wasn’t the one driving my car (and was sitting in the back), so by the time we realized it, we had to stay in line until we could get to a point to leave (which was before the lights). Then we ended up going back home (after getting gas) and went the next night. It’s neat how they have the music and lights working together though. 🎄
Oh my goodness. Five Oaks has the BEST breakfast!! I always make a hashbrown casserole (Cracker Barrel dupe), biscuits and gravy and eggs on Christmas Eve when the kids and grandkids come over. This year we are having to get together in the evening instead of the morning due to church. We are still having biscuits and gravy and hashbrown casserole. I will cook the bacon ahead of time and make up the casserole so that it is ready to bake. Merry Christmas to you and your family
That was a beautiful onion ... I have not been able to find a decent one here. Publix, Harris Teeter, Lowes, etc. all have them that have already gotten soft and beginning to rot in the center. I love the casserole and make it every Christmas morning. Love your channel!!
I was having the same problem. And then I started buying organic onions. None of them have been rotten! So they are more expensive for the bag but at the rate I was throwing away onions, I save money in the long run
Oh my goodness. I am definitely making the French toast bake on Christmas morning. The kids over are kind of picky with the egg flavor of French toast. So I think this will be perfect, less messy, and time consuming. Thanks so much. I'm excited. 🥰
My grandkids would love the Cinnamon Roll French Toast. It’s a tradition at my daughter’s house that I make Eggs Benedict for our Christmas morning breakfast. Although, I have be honest, I cheat and I use a pack of Knorr’s hollandaise sauce mix. It’s great and sure makes the process super easy. Merry Christmas to you and yours 😊
Just thinking about the French toast some more. Why not crumble the bacon onto the cinnamon rolls before adding the syrup?? Sweet and savory in the same bite!
The cinnamon/ French toast casserole looks so good! Hope you all had a Wonderful Christmas day and a Happy New Year including Gracie Lou! I had a blast babysitting & being with my Son and his girlfriend (soon to be fiance).🎉
These look delicious! 😋 Our daughter does our Christmas morning breakfast. She makes 2 similar recipes. I look forward to it each year!! ❤ Have a blessed Christmas!! ❄️🎄🎅
Hi Mandy! My family has always used frozen diced potatoes for casseroles. Especially for "funeral potatoes", instead of shredded. Bake until bubbling and crispy on the edges. Soo good! Merry Christmas! 🎄
I like how your sweet kitty is always there to collect her cheese tax!
Merry Christmas! I made the Hash-brown, sausage, egg cheesy casserole and it was yummy! I made it Christmas Eve evening, stored it in the fridge and baked it Christmas morning. I used the O’Brien potato hash browns but still chose to add more onion & red bell pepper. It came out really good, delicious. My husband loved it. And my 92 yo Pop did, too. Thank you, Mandy.

Five Oaks restaurant is actually in Sevierville, Tennessee but they have a sister restaurant called Crockett Breakfast Camp in Gatlinburg, Tennessee. Both serve the huge cinnamon rolls.
Mandy, food lion has the potatoes o'Brien in the dairy section. In the French fry section, Orada has the potatoes o'Brien also.
It looks very good. It's just me on Christmas Day. I have no children or grandchildren but I am blessed love. Watching you guys I love you guys❤❤
Merry Christmas to you ❤️
MERRY CHRISTMAS PAM!!!❤
Love making breakfast casseroles…..I haven’t been able to find the Ore-Ida Pitatoes O’Brien for the longest in any of my grocery stores…..I use them to make not only the casseroles but also a potato omelet & potato soup…..

These two seem like good choices so I’m glad you found & shared them. Coles comments are always my fav.

I’m happy we all had the time together bc in 2019 my husband and Dad to our three sons died with brain cancer.
So sorry for your loss. Glad you have this wonderful memory of all the family together.
Yum to both. For the French toast one, I'm tempted to sprinkle cooked crumbled bacon on top then drizzle the icing.
It seems like everytime i put an order it for the Obrien potatoes, they are either out, or un out before my order gets filled and the want to sub with plain hashbrowns. So....I check at least the a week and when they have them in, I get someone to pick up 2 or 3 bags for the freezer. I Love Them.
I make this and it’s really really good. I have a grandson who hates everything but loves this.
I may comment again but first YES, I have not been able to find Hash Browns in either of the 2 grocery stores in my area in months. Been wanting to make hash Brown waffles forever. Maybe this week, Christmas miracle.

I like hash brown casserole with Chopped up Cowboy Candy on the side❤️❤️❤️
Haha! I'm with Steven: "Christmas? Tomorrow!" You certainly can't say you don't have an appreciative audience at your table. Cheers and Merry Christmas from Sandy Eggo.
Love the Golden Girls reference! These look amazing, I can't wait to try them out!
I'm glad you used fresh peppers and onion. They taste better than the "O'Brien" version from the store. Bravo Mandy.
Mandy, we usually do supper but this year, my grandson has to work so we are doing Christmas brunch. I am roasting a big ham, biscuits and sausage gravy and yes, I am making both of these yummy looking recipes with some cut fruit. Thank you because I was struggling with the menu, and you saved me.

I'll be making both of those casseroles. Anything from Spend With Pennies has always been delicious.
They both sound delicious! I love breakfast for dinner, lunch, or brunch!
Riding around and looking at Christmas lights is one of my favorite parts of the season! I hope it was a fantastic date night! Merry Christmas
I stocked up on organic shredded hash browns in October because I heard there was going to be a shortage. I'm glad that I did.
I buy dehydrated hash browns in a carton (like the old milk cartons) I order them from Sams Club.
You have to rehydrate them for a few minutes,but they are good.
I've seen those at the Dollar Tree, but never knew if they were any good. Thanks for ur post, I'll pick them up next time!

I will be making both today for tomorrow’s breakfast, THANK YOU! Merry Christmas!
I made the scrambled eggs, Hash Browns dish for church breakfast last Sunday.👍
Mandy I just love your channel! I've been sick with no appetite for 4 weeks... watching your videos has opened my appetite 😊
I made the savory one for Christmas Day. My recipe called for potatoes o'brien and dry mustard. I also used the bacon pieces instead of sausage from Sam's Club. Both of your recipes look yummy!

Merry Christmas, and good health in the New Year. "Cinnamon roll", said in Homer Simpsons' doughnut voice.
Hi Mandy. I like adding green chile to the egg casserole. It’s a great casserole any time of day! Yum1 ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Does little Gracie read the recipe before you start cooking? She always knows when you're going to use cheese. Lol
Yumm! I usually make caramel pecan sticky buns for Christmas. Maybe I'll add crumbled bacon to them as well this year. Blessings and Merry Christmas from Oregon❣
Both....they looked delicious. Merry Christmas too you all !!!
We always do cinnamon rolls for Christmas morning. So I think we would like that one. But the other one also sounds great and like Steven said be good for breakfast and dinner.
I'll try both of these! I think my wife will love the Cinnamon Roll French Toast! 🙂
Hash brown casserole 😊. Have a blessed Christmas everyone!
MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!❤
Made this today, came out Awesome!
My husband and daughter loved it as well. That's a keeper recipe. Thanks for sharing.
These both look good. I made a Monte Cristo casserole the other day, and that has been requested for Christmas morning. 🎄
Merry Christmas to you and your men. ❤
I absolutely love your recipes!! But I also love sweet little Gracie!!
Merry Christmas 🎄🎁 Mandy and Family ❤
Mandee, can't wait to try these 2 recipes, they look amazing! Merry Christmas to you and your family my dear!!! I love your channel and watch all the time.
Tryon is super cool! We love their lights display. And you can get out and visit the stores and ride the Carousel.
You are the best! Got kids coming for a week at Christmas and easy breakfast for many, is a must! Thank you so much!
Tryon is so much fun!! Video isn't over, but I wonder if you went ice skating?! I will keep watching, no worries!!!
I will be making both of these after Christmas, both are too big to eat being we eat Christmas meal at 12pm, regardless they look sooo yummy, Thanks for sharing. I hope you had a fun time at Esquire place, I live 35min, from there, not been though. Have a good rest of week😊

I add red and green veggies, sausage, Parmesan cheese and Dijon mustard. Always make it ahead and bake on Christmas morning.
Love your recipes. One suggestion is to use Idaho Spuds Golden Grill Hasbrown Potatoes. Dehydrated and so simple to use alone or in recipes.
I use the Simply Potates in the refrigerator section, no thawing! I also use fresh spinach in my spinach dip recipe, again no thawing and draining!
I'm making the cinnamon roll one on eve cuz I have all the things! No grocery trip required!! I kinda make the other already on Christmas. But we use bacon or ham whatever we feeling! I always cook the meat b4 hand and chop the vegs so it's easy assembling.vnever though of doing it all so it's just pop n the oven! Umm time saver you are my friend lol❤
How did you know I needed a Christmas morning recipe? Thank you for posting ..and Merry Christmas Mandy & Steve! 🫶🏼🎄
Great recipes. I think I'd even try using taco seasoning instead of Italian seasoning in the first casserole. Merry Christmas!
I enjoy your channel. Gracey is so cute. You have me calling my puggat Priscilla mam when she gets hungry lol. Merry Christmas.
Thank you for these delicious recipes and ALL the other ones throughout the year! Wishing you and your entire family a very MERRY CHRISTMAS and a safe, healthy, happy and BLESSED NEW YEAR! ❄⛄🎄⛄❄
We alway have cinnamon buns for Christmas breakfast so im going to try the New cinnamon buns / French toast looks yummy. Thanks for sharing
Going to make casserole tonight for supper.thanks❤ Merry Christmas
I will be making the cinnamon roll one on Christmas Eve morning and the hash brown one for Christmas morning and possibly both for New Year’s Day morning! Lol 😂 It’s just my husband and myself this year but we love to eat and if someone stops in...I’m all set up for them! Merry Christmas and the happiest of New Year ever for you and your beautiful family! 🎄🎅🏻🥰💕🙏🎊
Love the soda w the sweet breaky casserole .😂. Bravo, friend! 🙌🏽🎄👩🏻🍳
Hello Mandy Seasons Greetings to you All❤❤❤😂
I'll make both!! Satisfy the adults and children!!
They both loo delicious I will be making half recipes of each.
I am going to try that hash brown, sausage overnight bake. I have been planning to make some kind of overnight casserole and this is the best looking one I have seen.
Wishing you all the best of Christmases and a happy, blessed and healthy new year.
Mandy, they both look delicious! I make the hash brown casserole nearly every year. I do use the shredded hash browns, with some diced sweet onion and press those into a 9 x 13 casserole dish. I melt a stick of butter and drizzle it all over the top. Then I load it up, usually with ham, chopped fresh asparagus, mushrooms, grated cheese ( I combine sharp white cheddar with Swiss ) and some chopped red pepper. Beat 8 eggs with milk and salt and pepper, pour over the top. Because the butter is drizzled over the potatoes in the bottom of the dish, they get a nice brown crisp on them. Merry Christmas to you and yours!
That sounds yummy! How long do you cook it?
Your recipe sounds delicious!❤
Thank you for being a friend 😊 I love the Golden Girls, I still watch them. It's been hard for me to find shredded hashbrowns or any hashbrowns since covid started, so when I find them and I have the money, I stock up 😀
I am going to make these at other times. My kids and grandkids are stuck on our Christmas morning crepes tradition. As for Sicily, it's gorgeous. My mom was born there.
The French toast bake reminds me of monkey bread or pull apart bake. All it needs is some chopped pecans mixed in and a bunt pan.
If you like Five Oaks, try Crockett’s Breakfast Camp!! It’s towards the entrance to the park on Main Street in Gatlinburg!
Hi Mandy. About the Christmas lights in Tryon, NC, our sons and daughter-in-law went with me around the Christmas 2019 (when we lived in Shelby, NC). It was nice, just make sure you have enough gas. I wasn’t the one driving my car (and was sitting in the back), so by the time we realized it, we had to stay in line until we could get to a point to leave (which was before the lights). Then we ended up going back home (after getting gas) and went the next night. It’s neat how they have the music and lights working together though. 🎄
I'm going to make the cinnamon roll bake! It looks easy to make and will be delicious!!! MERRY CHRISTMAS to you all!!!! And Gracie Lou!!!
These breakfast casseroles look delicious!!
I am going to try the cinnamon roll one but with orange danish (Pillsbury brand in the tube) rolls instead. Thanks for sharing! ~ Stephanie
Girl I'm making both of those❤❤
Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays to everyone!!
Merry Christmas! Jesus is the reason for the season
Oh my goodness. Five Oaks has the BEST breakfast!! I always make a hashbrown casserole (Cracker Barrel dupe), biscuits and gravy and eggs on Christmas Eve when the kids and grandkids come over. This year we are having to get together in the evening instead of the morning due to church. We are still having biscuits and gravy and hashbrown casserole. I will cook the bacon ahead of time and make up the casserole so that it is ready to bake. Merry Christmas to you and your family

I love watching the breakfast casseroles. I don't eat them because I hate scrambled eggs. I might have to try the Cinnamon roll one.
Trying this for sure, thank you and Merry Christmas. 🎄🎅🤶🥰❤️✅
HI Mandy I love to watch your channel please keep the way you and your family are happy and funny Happy Holidays to you all ❤
Just thinking about the French toast some more. Why not crumble the bacon onto the cinnamon rolls before adding the syrup?? Sweet and savory in the same bite!
The cinnamon/ French toast casserole looks so good! Hope you all had a Wonderful Christmas day and a Happy New Year including Gracie Lou! I had a blast babysitting & being with my Son and his
girlfriend (soon to be fiance).🎉
❤❤❤ "Picture it!" !! You are fantastic!! Love the reference and your channel!! Christmas blessings to y'all!
My Son's favorite Christmas Eve breakfast/brunch casserole is Ham Strata. Simple, easy and delicious. I make it every year for him.
These look delicious! 😋 Our daughter does our Christmas morning breakfast. She makes 2 similar recipes. I look forward to it each year!! ❤ Have a blessed Christmas!! ❄️🎄🎅
Hi Mandy! My family has always used frozen diced potatoes for casseroles. Especially for "funeral potatoes", instead of shredded. Bake until bubbling and crispy on the edges. Soo good!
