Pre-heat oven to 450 degrees.
In a medium size bowl, add the hash browns, ½ cup cheese, salt, pepper, and paprika. Mix well.
Spray a muffin pan very well with the cooking oil spray. Divide mixture into each muffin tin and push down in the middle of each one to create a nest. Should make about 18.
Place in oven for 20 minutes and take out. Turn the oven down to 350 degrees.
In another medium size bowl, add the eggs, milk, ½ cup cheese, and bacon. Mix well.
Fill each hash brown nest with the egg mixture. Place back in oven and cook for 15-17 minutes or until the eggs are set. Remove from oven and let cool for about 5 minutes.
Remove from pan and garnish with parsley and additional salt & pepper if desired.
Enjoy!
*Makes 18.
