Ingredients

• 1 large egg
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 1/8 teaspoon pepper
• 2 cups frozen shredded hash brown potatoes, thawed
• 1/4 cup shredded Asiago cheese
• FILLING:
• 3 large eggs
• 1 tablespoon minced fresh chives
• 1/3 cup shredded Colby-Monterey Jack cheese
• 1/3 cup fresh baby spinach, thinly sliced
• 2 bacon strips, cooked and crumbled

Directions

1. Preheat oven to 400°. Grease eight muffin cups.

2. In a bowl, whisk egg, salt and pepper until blended; stir in potatoes and Asiago cheese. To form crusts, press about 1/4 cup potato mixture onto bottom and up sides of each prepared muffin cup. Bake until light golden brown, 14-17 minutes.

3. For filling, in a small bowl, whisk eggs and chives until blended; stir in cheese and spinach. Spoon into crusts; top with bacon. Bake until a knife inserted in the center comes out clean, 6-8 minutes.
