Hash Brown Taco Shells that do not break on you, and stay tender and crispy
Let's not forget these taco shells are made out of a potato.
How many things could we possibly list that goes great with potatoes?
Crispy Hash Brown Taco Shells s would work "Only" great with pretty much anything you could want to stuff them with 🙂 The potato was first domesticated in the region of modern-day southern Peru and extreme northwestern Bolivia between 8000 and 5000 BC. It has since spread around the world and become a staple crop in many countries. The cultivation of potatoes in South America may go back 10,000 years.

Ingredients
- 4 cups Hash Browns / frozen hash browns
- 1 cup Parmesan Cheese
- 1 Whole Egg plus the White from one Egg ( Total 1 ½ Eggs )
- 1 teaspoon Fajita Season Or your favorite additions Gives some color and depth of flavor

FAJITA SEASONING
- 1 tablespoon Ancho Chili Powder

- 1 teaspoon Onion Powder
- 1 teaspoon Garlic Powder
- ½ teaspoon Cumin
- ½ Oregano
- ½ Black Pepper
Step By Step Instructions
Step 1
Take a bag of frozen potato hash browns and measure out 4 cups.
You could cut the recipe in half, but do not reduce the amount of Egg.
Step 2
Measure out one cup of Parmesan cheese. The cheese is a binding agent and helps the taco shell hold its shape.
Step 3
In a large mixing bowl add all ingredients and combine together
- Hash Browns
- Eggs
- Cheese
- Fajita Seasoning
- Sliced Green Onion
Step 4
Cover a cookie sheet with parchment paper, which helps the taco shells do not stick.
Spray with cooking spray for insurance.
Step 5
Bake for 20 minutes / Oven temperature set at 400 degrees. Once out of the oven let them cool down a few minutes before handling. The Taco Shells will stay pliable and shapeable.

Shaping the Taco Shells
- I like to use a hamburger shaper (Seen in the video). Remove the shaping tool, then flatten them out a bit with your hands making them larger. Shape the taco shells how you like them. They will not expand in the oven while baking.
- Baking:Cook at 400 degrees till crispy on a cookie sheet with parchment paper. Spray with non-cooking spray.
- If you have leftover hash brown mix, it freezes great for future breakfasts. I personally chip off a little and add it to a pan and cook like normal hash browns. mmm
