Step 1
Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Cook sausage in a large deep skillet over medium heat until evenly browned. Drain, crumble, and set aside.

Lightly grease a 9 x 13 inch baking dish. In the prepared baking dish, stir together the hash browns and butter.
Step 3
Line the bottom and sides of the baking dish with the mixture.
Step 4
In a bowl, mix together sausage, cheese, onion, peppers, cottage cheese, and eggs. Pour over the potato mixture (the baking dish will be very full).

Bake for one hour, and let cool for 5 minutes before serving. Cut into squares and serve.
