serves 6
I am always looking for something quick and not much work when it comes to cooking. Baking can take me hours and I don't mind, cooking is a whole different ballgame. I also like to eat breakfast for dinner, so this is a win-win for me. I think the next time I make it I will substitute cubed ham for the bacon. This could be a whatever-you-have-on-hand dish made with eggs and hashbrowns.
Ingredients
6 slices of bacon
5 eggs
1/2 cup milk
3 cups frozen hash brown potatoes, thawed
1/3 cup chopped green onions
1 1/2 cups shredded Cheddar cheese, divided
Directions
Place bacon in a large, deep skillet. Cook over medium high heat until evenly brown. Drain, crumble and set aside.
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
Lightly grease a 7x11 baking dish. In a large bowl, beat together the eggs and milk. Stir in the bacon, hash browns, green onions, and 1 cup shredded Cheddar cheese. Pour into prepared baking dish.
Bake in a preheated oven 25 to 35 minutes, or until a knife inserted in the center comes out clean. (It was closer to 40 minutes for me). Sprinkle the remaining Cheddar cheese on top, and continue baking for 3 to 4 minutes, or until the cheese is melted. Remove from oven and let sit 5 minutes before serving.
