Bacon & Hashbrown Skillet "Bake"

This is a yummy and very EASY recipe that can easily be used for lunch or a light dinner during the summer months.  **I have made a few "Weight Watcher friendly" substitutions from the original recipe since I am still trying to lose about 38 more pounds of, um,  my "fluffiness"!  Enjoy y'all!

Ingredients:

2 Tbsp. oil (vegetable or olive oil)**Or may use Non-stick Spray such as Pam
2 cups frozen shredded hash browns
2 large green onions, sliced/chopped
6 eggs (**or Egg Beaters to equal 6 eggs)
1 (2.1 ounce) package of Oscar Mayer Cooked Bacon Pieces (You can use chopped ham too!)
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon pepper
1/2 cup **lowfat shredded Sharp Cheddar Cheese
1 tomato, chopped

Heat oil in non-stick frying pan on medium-high heat.  Add hash brown potatoes and onions, cook 8-10 minutes or until potatoes are browned, stirring occasionally.  Remove from heat and spread potatoes to evenly cover bottom of pan.

Whisk eggs in small bowl and stir in bacon, salt and pepper.  Pour this over potatoes and cover. 

Cook on medium-low heat for about 10 minutes until eggs are set.  Top with the cheese and tomatoes; cook, covered, 3-4 minutes or until the cheese is melted.

This was some of the beautiful scenery we saw last weekend when we traveled to coastal North Carolina!  What a beautiful world the Lord has
blessed us with!
