Cheesy hasbrowns are a family favorites, but instead of making a huge batch of hasbrowns in the oven, I decided to whip up these little patties in a skillet for a delicious side dish.

I have been a little MIA around here because I am on Christmas break. It has been less break and more house work really. I have been painting up a storm at our new house. I started with whitewashing the fireplace. I can’t lie, I was very scared I would ruin the fireplace, but the 70’s brick needed a face-lift big time! I didn’t want to just paint it, because I am not a huge fan of that look, whitewash on the other hand seemed appealing.

I watched numerous YouTube videos and read countless blog tutorials and finally felt prepared to take the paint to the brick. When it was all done, I was very happy with the look (excuse the horrible cell phone pictures!). It just dulled the dark brick slightly and freshened the room up. Now I just need to get rid of that horrible black granite and replace it with some reclaimed wood for a warmer look.

Ingredients

2 c. shredded cheddar

2 c. thawed hasbrowns

1/2 c. onion diced

2/3 c. cooked bacon crumbled

2 eggs

1/3 c. cream cheese whipped

1/2 tsp. salt

1/4 tsp. pepper

1 tsp. chilli powder

olive oil for frying

sour cream for garnish

chopped chives for garnish

Steps

In a large bowl, mix the first 9 ingredients until well combined. Form into two inch balls and flatten with your palms to create a patty.

In a large non-stick skillet, add a Tablespoon of olive oill. When the oil is hot, add four patties to the skillet and cook for 3-4 minutes on each side until browned.

Repeat the process, adding oil each time, so the skillet is not dry.

Place the cooked patties on a paper towel and serve immediately with a dollop of sour cream and sprinkle of chives.
