Skinny Hash Browns, Bacon and Eggs Breakfast Casserole
From: www.skinnykitchen.com/
All breakfast foods in one hearty, super delicious dish. I can’t wait for you to taste this luxuriously rich casserole! It’s so easy to make since using shredded frozen hash browns. I’m also adding bacon cooked on paper towels in the microwave to remove most of the fat. In addition, the fat-free cottage cheese and sour cream really add to the richness of this dish. Perfect for a weekend breakfast or brunch and you can freeze the leftovers for a quick weekday meal. A definite keeper!
