  4. In a mixing bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper until frothy.
  5. Spread thawed hashbrowns evenly across the greased baking dish, pressing down gently.
  6. Spoon the sausage and cream cheese mixture over the hashbrowns, distributing evenly.
  7. Pour the egg mixture over the sausage layer, ensuring even distribution.
  8. Top with shredded cheddar and mozzarella cheese.
  9. Bake uncovered for 40-45 minutes until golden-brown and eggs are set.
  10. Allow to rest for 5-10 minutes before garnishing with chopped chives or green onions.
