Ingredients
- 1 (12-oz.) package center cut bacon
- 2 tsp olive oil
- 1 small onion (100g) finely diced
- 3 cups shredded hash browns (382g)
- 1 Tbsp ranch seasoning mix
- 1/2 cup low fat cottage cheese (112g) can omit if needed
- 2.5 cups egg whites (600g)
- 3/4 cup shredded cheese (84g) I used 1/2 cup mozzarella, 1/4 cup cheddar
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 400 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with foil then place the bacon on the sheet side-by-side, without overlapping. Cook the bacon for 18 to 20 minutes, or until it's reached your desired level of crispiness. Then transfer the bacon to a plate lined with paper towels. Once cooled, reserve 4 pieces of bacon for another recipe because if you don’t cook bacon every day and need to reserve some for some more bacon recipes ;) then crumble the rest of the bacon. Reduce oven temperature to 350F.
- Meanwhile, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the onion and cook for 2-3 minutes, then add the hash browns and cook for another 5-6 minutes or until they’ve warmed up a bit. Season hash browns with the ranch seasoning mix and salt and pepper to taste (I did 3/4 tsp salt and 1/4 tsp black pepper). Then stir in the bacon crumbles and cottage cheese.
- Spray a 9x13-inch baking dish with cooking spray. Transfer hash brown mixture to the dish and pour egg whites evenly over top. Sprinkle evenly with the cheese.
- Cover with aluminum foil. Bake for 15 minutes and then remove the foil and bake uncovered for another 10 minutes.
- Let cool for a few minutes before serving. Top with hot sauce, ketchup, mustard, etc and enjoy!
Notes
- How to store: Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
- How to reheat: this delicious hash brown dish is absolutely delicious reheated in the air fryer. Just pop it in for 6-7 minutes at 400F. You can also easily reheat in the microwave or oven.
