This recipe is a disaster. I was hesitant because there was no binding ingredient for the hashbrowns. There is no flavor. It is nothing like a pizza because the only thing that stays together is the cheese and topping that cheese klings to. You will definately need a fork and knife and ketchup, hot sauce, ranch dressing, or anything else that you can think of. I added an extra egg and 3 sausage patties, cut up as well on my first try to spice it up a bit.   This might work better as a base of ingredients for a casserole but not layered.  I am thinking of how to use the rest of this to mix it up and add stuff to make it into a casserole or something more edible.
