1 t smoked salt

1/2 t pepper

1 t hot sauce

1/2 c onions or leeks

5 oz. fresh hash browns (found in cold section) pat dry

1 lb. cooked crispy bacon

Salsa for serving

Beat eggs, add cheese, sour cream, salt, pepper, hot sauce and onions. Mix well. Add potatoes, continue mixing until potatoes are incorporated. Place in a greased pie plate. Top with the crispy bacon. Cover and let set, in the fridge for 2 hrs. or overnight. Bake 25-35 min. or until knife inserted in middle comes out clean. Add salsa to top of casserole when serving. The salsa adds lots of flavor! Bacon stays crispy because it is on the top, yum!
