They may look like muffins, but these cuties pack my favorite breakfast all-stars like eggs, hash browns and bacon. Grab one and get munching. —Talon DiMare, Bullhead City, Arizona

add an egg or 2 to the hashbrowns so they stick together

Like others, my potatoes didnt stick together very well, but that was probably my fault since I used frozen ones and they werent quite thawed so pressing them around the edges of the cups didnt work too well. I used sausage since I didnt have any bacon, and I minced up some onion, broccoli, and red pepper since I like to add veggies to eggs. Theyre quite a bit of work but they taste great, and Ill refrigerate or freeze the leftovers for a quick and easy breakfast.

Sounds wonderful - did anyone make ahead and freeze?Like Kathryn78 I didnt make yet ....but curious if anyone made ahead?

I made 6 of these in a jumbo muffin tin and that worked great. I didnt read the part about baking the potato cups for 18-20 minutes, I only did it for 10 and that was not enough. Pretty easy and good but really nothing special. The southwest flavor does come through as a nice little kick.

I made these for Mothers Day and they were simply amazing. I love the texture and great taste. I plan to make them again for this upcoming Christmas morning. I plan to double the recipe and make half with bacon and half with hot Italian sausage.

I used ham. Flavor is delicious, but the potatoes do not stick together. Next time Im going to mix them with egg and a bit of milk.

This isnt a review but a question - how well will these freeze for weekday breakfasts on the go? Microwave for just a few seconds? Should they be frozen?I put a 5 star as Ive never had a failed recipe from TOH and just reading the ingredients tells me this would be a winner.

For this recipe I used Hot Italian sausage. I didnt use the Southwest potatoes ( didnt have any) so sauteed Green Peppers and onions in butter before cooking the egg mixture, added the egg mixture and followed the recipe from there. I have tried several recipes like this but the eggs were still runny after baking, cooking the egg mixture completely before putting into the potato cups ensured no runny eggs. Why didnt I think of that. I also used paper muffin cups to keep the potatoes from sticking. These are wonderful and easy, a definite keeper. Thank you Talon

I dont like to change recipes on TOH. I like to make them as written, BUT I had left over ham & used that in place of bacon. YUMMY!!! Will definitely try bacon too.Thanks for the easy brunch idea.
