ingredients

  • 5 strips of bacon
  • 2 frozen hash brown patties
  • 1 avocado, sliced
  • Sour cream
  • Garlic salt
  • Freshly shredded sharp cheddar cheese
  • 2 scallions, finely sliced
  • Red pepper flakes

Method

  • Step 1

    Preheat oven to 400F. Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil and lay the bacon on it. Bake for 25 minutes, then lay on a paper towel-lined plate to absorb extra grease.

  • Step 2

    Cook the hash browns according to package instructions. (I air fried mine at 400F for 15 minutes).

  • Step 3

    When the hash browns are done, divide the avocado slices among them on top. Then put a thin layer of sour cream, and sprinkle on some garlic salt. Crumble the bacon on top of that. Then, grate on the sharp cheddar, and top with scallions and red pepper flakes. Enjoy!
