In a hot skillet, sauté the sliced smoked sausage, sliced bell peppers, and diced onion until slightly browned and aromatic. This step is optional but recommended for enhanced flavor.
Transfer the sautéed meat and vegetables to a crockpot. Add the frozen shredded hash browns, heavy whipping cream, cheddar cheese soup, sour cream, ranch seasoning packet, and shredded cheese to the crockpot.
Stir the mixture well to ensure all ingredients are evenly distributed.
Cover the crockpot and cook on high for 2 hours or on low for 4 hours, until the potatoes are tender and the cheese has melted into a creamy, savory sauce.
Once cooked, give it a good stir and serve hot. Enjoy this comforting dish that combines the heartiness of smoked sausage with the creamy, tangy flavors of ranch and cheddar.
Enjoy this cozy, cheesy delight that’s perfect for any meal, bringing warmth and comfort to your table with minimal effort.
