When was the last time you had a good breakfast? I’m talking about something that is better than a cold bowl of cereal or perhaps some bacon and eggs. Not that there is anything wrong with those food choices but sometimes, you just want something special on the table in front of you. That is what this recipe is going to provide.
The recipe is for hashbrown cups and it is the best way to get your morning started. The combination of flavors is something that will keep you smiling all morning long. In fact, this breakfast is so fantastic that you might not want to keep it to yourself. Make this one for someone you care for tomorrow morning and share that special breakfast smile.
Ingredients:
1 (20-ounce) package refrigerated hashbrowns
4 large eggs
2 tablespoons milk
1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
1 teaspoon hot sauce
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
2 slices bacon, diced
8 ounces cremini mushrooms, thinly sliced
1 bell pepper, diced
1 cup chopped baby spinach
1/2 cup shredded Monterey Jack cheese, divided
Directions:
Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Lightly coat a 12-cup muffin tin with nonstick spray.
Divide potatoes into each of the 12 muffin tins, pressing carefully to make sure there is an opening in the center. Place into oven and bake for 30-40 minutes, or until golden brown, then set aside.
In a medium bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, Worcestershire and hot sauce, then season with salt and pepper, to taste. Set aside.
Heat a large skillet over medium high heat. Add bacon and cook until brown and crispy, about 6-8 minutes. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate, then drain excess fat, reserving 1 tablespoon in the skillet.
Add mushrooms and bell pepper to the skillet. Cook, stirring occasionally, until tender, about 4-5 minutes. Stir in egg mixture until the eggs are completely set, about 3-4 minutes. Stir in spinach, 1/4 cup cheese and bacon until the spinach has wilted, about 2 minutes.
Spoon egg mixture into the muffin tins and sprinkle with remaining 1/4 cup cheese. Place into oven and bake for 3-4 minutes, or until the cheese has melted.
Serve immediately.
