    Variations

    Green Onions & (Vegan) Bacon Bits

    You can add some extra flavor to your hash browns by adding green onions and bacon bits. 

    Chop up the green onions before adding them to the hash browns. Make sure to add them while you’re mixing all the ingredients together—before you put it into the oven. 

    You can add vegan bacon bits at the same time. There are a number of vegan options for bacon bits, such as McCormick’s Bac’n Pieces.

    Make it Vegan

    Making this recipe vegan is super simple! Switch out the sour cream and cheese for their vegan alternatives: vegan sour cream, shredded vegan cheddar cheese, and vegan shredded Colby-Jack cheese. 

    Homemade Hash Browns

    Instead of using frozen hash browns, you can opt to make your own. 

    To make these, shred the potatoes, and then put them into water to remove starch. Then squeeze the liquid out of the hash browns and set them in another bowl. Towel off all the hash browns and fry them in a skillet with butter. Only put about 1 to 2 potatoes in the skillet at a time. Once they’ve browned on the bottom, flip them over to brown on the other side. Season with salt and pepper.
