  • 2 eggs
  • 2 tsp, 2% milk
  • Dash each salt and pepper
  • 2 tsp. butter

  1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Line 12 alternating cups in a mini-muffin pan with bacon pieces, crisscrossing three strips in each so they resemble spokes of a wheel. Loosely crumple twelve 3-inch strips of aluminum foil into balls; place in cups to keep bacon from sliding. Bake 15 to 20 minutes or until bacon is crisp.

  2. Meanwhile., cook potatoes according to package directions. In a small bowl, whisk eggs, milk, salt and pepper. In a small skillet, heat butter over medium heat. Pour in egg mixture; cook and stir until eggs are thickened and no liquid egg remains.

  3. Transfer bacon cups to a baking sheet; remove foil. Spoon hash browns and scrambled eggs into cups; sprinkle with cheese. Broil 3 to 4 inches from heat 3 to 5 minutes or until chew is melted. Sprinkle with green onion and parsley
