Rule #254: An easy breakfast is the best breakfast.

These Hash Brown Egg Cups are one of our go-to breakfast recipes for busy weeks. You can make them ahead on the weekend, then reheat for just a minute before digging in! The kids love these, too!

Hash Brown Egg Cups

First, spray a large muffin tin with cooking spray. The muffin tins make for a perfect little egg cup mold. In a separate bowl, mix together 2 cups of shredded hash browns (thawed the night before in the fridge), 3/4 cup shredded cheddar cheese, and 2 tbs. olive oil. Equally divide the hash brown mixture between the muffin tins then press the mixture on the bottom of the pan and up the sides, creating a cup shape.

Next, bake at 425 for 15-20 minutes, until cheese is melted and hash browns are golden-brown.

Then, crack an egg into each of the hash brown cups. Sprinkle a little salt and pepper onto each of them. Top with more shredded cheddar and chopped, cooked bacon.
