If you're going to use potatoes as a crust, I would lay down a layer then pre bake it until crispy before adding the other ingredients on top. Otherwise, I don't see how it's worth the trouble of separating the potatoes.
It does appear that she is "packing" the potatoes. (This is from the site the OP mentioned)
Are you using a DEEP dish pie pan? If you're using a standard pie pan, that's your problem.
I'm not sure I would have done this the same way she did. I would have mixed the sausage and peppers/onions in with the potatoes and used a 9x13 casserole dish. And I wouldn't have packed it so tightly.
Yeah the "packing it down" think is a bit odd, I've never seen a recipe suggest that before. Even so, she obviously still has left it loose enough that the milk/egg mixture soaks right in, and obviously, you have to have a dish that is large enough.
OK, I get it now. I think we were all thinking it was a breakfast casserole with a lot more liquid in it. This is more like a hashbrown pie. That does look like a deep dish pie plate in the recipe. It looks like an 8x8 square would work too.
It's definitely a deep dish pie plate. I have one exactly like it, and I have a standard one. The deep dish holds WAY more.

Is there any way to prevent this from happens by? Am I doing something wrong I want to make this again.
Thank you!!
Even if you've come to trust recipes from a particular person, it is still helpful to read through similar recipes before proceeding. You will learn more that way, plus you may see potential mistakes and thus have a chance to correct them before messing up a dish and wasting ingredients.
There are tons of versions of this kind of casserole at your fingertips. Trust, but verify!
