This is a staple in my house. I change the balance of ingredients and level of spice quite often. Lean ground pork is a nice alternative to turkey bacon.
In a large bowl, add crumbled bacon, scallions, shallot, green chiles, Egg Beaters®, yogurt, sour cream, and seasonings. Mix well.
I prefer to layer my ingredients a couple of times. I pour 1/2 mixture into baking dish. Spread evenly.
Top with 1/2 of the bag of hash browns.
Next, top with all of the shredded cheese.
Then layer on hash browns. Push the potatoes down into the mixture using a spatula till you see mixture coming through evenly across the top. Top of potatoes should slightly moist.
Bake, serve and enjoy!

Serves: 6 servings
Ingredients
- 12 slices crispy cooked Jenni-O® turkey bacon strips
- 3 scallions, finely chopped (use both white and green portions)
- 1 medium shallot, finely diced
- 4 oz can of Ortega® fire roasted diced chiles (mild or hot)
- ¾ cup Egg Beaters® (3 egg equivalent)
- 1 cup plain Chobani® Greek non-fat yogurt
- ½ cup Daisy® lite sour cream
- ⅛ teaspoon black pepper
- ¼ teaspoon Mrs. Dash® Southwest Chipotle seasoning
- ½ cup shredded low-fat Mexican blend cheese
- 1 -20 oz package Simply Potatoes®, shredded hash browns
- Pam® olive oil cooking spray
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Coat 8 x 10 inch Pyrex® baking dish with cooking spray.
- Cook bacon in microwave using paper towels to soak up fat. Take two paper towels, un-separated. Place 6 bacon strips on one paper, then fold the other over top. Cook in microwave for 4 minutes and 45 seconds until well done and crispy. Repeat with 6 remaining bacon strips. Crumble cooked strips on clean paper towel and set aside.
- In a large bowl, add crumbled bacon, scallions, shallot, green chiles, Egg Beaters®, yogurt, sour cream, and seasonings. Mix well.
- Pour mixture into baking dish. Spread evenly. Next, top with shredded cheese and then layer on hash browns. Push the potatoes down into the mixture using a spatula till you see mixture coming through evenly across the top. Top of potatoes should slightly moist.
- Cover casserole with foil and bake in oven for 30 minutes. Remove cover and bake an additional 30 minutes. If your Pyrex® dish is safe for this, to crisp the hash browns, place under broiler for 2-3 minutes until golden brown. (I crisp single servings individually.)
- Remove from oven and let set for 10 minutes to set. Cut into 6 slices.
Notes
This casserole can be refrigerated and reheated. I cook up a batch and eat it for breakfast all week. Tastes yummy every day! Just re-heat it under a low broiler for 9-10 min in a broiler safe pan or cookie sheet.
