Directions
Preheat your oven to 375 degrees F. In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, sour cream, milk, onion powder, and chipotle chile powder until everything is well combined. Stir in the hash brown potatoes, both the whole kernel and cream-style corn, shredded Cheddar cheese, and chopped peppers. Give it a good mix so all the ingredients are evenly distributed. Lightly spray a 13x9-inch baking dish with cooking spray, then spread the mixture evenly in the pan. Pop it in the oven and bake for about 40 to 45 minutes, or until the casserole is hot all the way through and the top has turned a nice golden brown. Let it cool for a few minutes before serving.

Storage Guide
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat gently in the oven or microwave to maintain the creamy texture. Avoid freezing, as the texture may change after thawing.
