Breakfast, the only meal all four members of my family will happily eat anytime of the day. When I stumbled upon this recipe on Allrecipes.com, I knew I wanted to test it out. My family was obsessed! So much so, that this was just enough food for us, but I quickly realized two things; 1) I'd be making this again and tweeting the ingredients & 2) I would have to double the recipe next time. I took photos after my first attempt, but read through until the end. I have made this a few times since and I have a few tips and alterations that are helpful when recreating! Here is what you'll need:
Ingredients:
-6 slices bacon (I used uncured, gluten free)-5 eggs (I used organic, local, free-range)-1/2 cup milk (organic)-3 cups frozen hash brown potatoes, thawed (organic)-1/3 cup chopped green onions (organic)1 1/2 cups shredded cheddar cheese, divided (organic)
Directions:
1) Place bacon in a large, deep skillet. Cook over medium heat, drain, crumble, and set aside.
2) Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Lightly grease a 7x11 baking dish. (I used a larger glass dish)
3) 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 the prepared baking dish.
4) Bake in the preheated oven 25 to 35 minutes, or until a knife inserted in the center comes out clean. Sprinkle the remaining Cheddar cheese on top, and continue baking for 3 to 4 minutes, or until eh cheese is melted. Remove from oven, and let sit 5 minutes before serving.
