Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).

In a large skillet, cook the diced bacon over medium heat until crispy. Drain on paper towels.

In a large mixing bowl, combine the thawed hashbrowns, cooked bacon, eggs, cheese, milk, garlic powder, salt, and pepper.

Spread the mixture evenly in a greased 9x13 inch baking dish.

Bake in the preheated oven for 45-50 minutes or until the eggs are set and the top is golden brown.

Let the casserole cool for about 10 minutes before serving.
