Personal Notes:
Personal Notes:
I usually do a full 9x13 pan and just use an entire bag of frozen hash browns – which is about 11 cups, so clearly when I make the smaller pan I use more also. I also vary the meat I use…sometimes ham, etc but if I use bacon I buy the already cooked real bacon bits…makes it so easy. I also use more than just one egg. Just depends on what you like J I almost always make it up the night before so it is just throwing it in the oven in the am. If I am at home I don’t put the liquid in until right before I put it in the oven but it doesn’t really make a difference!

The only thing I would do differently is bake it longer. My oven seems to always take longer than required. Every recipe I read says ovens vary and adjust time accordingly
