4 ounces cream cheese
½ cup sour cream
1 cup whole milk
8 large eggs
2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
30-ounce bag frozen shredded hash browns

Cook the beef sausage and Turkey Bacon in a large skillet over medium-high heat until browned. Drain excess fat.
In a mixing bowl, blend cream cheese and sour cream until smooth. Add milk, eggs, ranch seasoning, onion powder, garlic powder, salt, and pepper; mix well.
Stir in cooked meats, thawed hash browns, and 1 cup of cheddar cheese until combined.
