I came up with this recipe when unexpected company arrived and I didn’t have enough lettuce and tomatoes on hand to make a traditional salad. Everyone enjoyed it so much that it became a regular at our table.

Ingredients

  • 4 cups frozen shredded hash brown potatoes, thawed
  • 1/2 cup finely chopped onion
  • 8 bacon strips, cooked and crumbled
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 can (12 ounces) evaporated milk
  • 1/2 teaspoon seasoned salt

Directions

  1. In a greased 8-in. square baking dish, layer half of the potatoes, onion, bacon and cheese. Repeat layers.
  2. In a small bowl, whisk the egg, milk and seasoned salt; pour over potato mixture. Cover and bake at 350° for 30 minutes. Uncover; bake 5-10 minutes longer or until a knife inserted in the center comes out clean.
