Here in Minnesota, we love to bake casseroles, hot dishes, and egg bakes! You can out just about any meal in a large baking pan and bake it up all at once! We love tacos, so I decided to create a healthy Taco Egg Bake to make taco Tuesdays even easier.
Plus, this can be made ahead of time and just thrown into the oven about an hour before you want to eat! I even make a double batch and bake and freeze one to thaw and warm up later.

Hi Brenda, here is the post: https://realfoodrn.com/7-day-bone-broth/
Hi, frozen hash browns that are healthy aren’t all that easy to get in my country. What kind of potato substitutes could you do? Frozen fries? Frozen wedges? Frozen potato gems/royals (tater tots)?
You could try using mashed potatoes, similar in how they do it in shepherds pie. Adding some taco spice to the potatoes.
