Ingredients
- 3 hash browns (frozen patties or fresh shredded potatoes)
- 3 eggs, scrambled
- 1 avocado, smashed
- 1/2 cup cottage cheese
- Everything But The Bagel seasoning (optional)
- Salt and black pepper, to taste
Instructions
- Cook the hash browns: If using frozen patties, follow the package directions until golden brown and crisp. If using fresh rounds, pan-fry over medium-high heat in a little oil until both sides are deep golden. Drain on paper towel.
- Scramble the eggs: Heat a nonstick pan over medium. Whisk the eggs with a pinch of salt and scramble gently until just set but still moist. Season with black pepper and transfer to a plate.
- Smash the avocado: Mash the avocado in a small bowl with a fork, season lightly with salt and pepper, keeping it slightly chunky.
- Build the base: Arrange the cooked hash browns on a serving plate while hot.
- Add the avocado: Spread a layer of smashed avocado over each hash brown.
- Top with eggs: Divide the scrambled eggs evenly over the avocado layer.
- Finish and serve: Spoon cottage cheese over the eggs and sprinkle with seasoning. Serve immediately while hot.
Notes
For a dairy-free option, use crumbled tofu instead of cottage cheese. Fresh shredded potatoes require rinsing and squeezing out moisture before frying.
