Cheddar Bacon Loaded Hashbrown Patties are cheesy bacon and onion hashbrowns, topped with creamy sour cream and chives for the perfect appetizer or side dish.
Cheesy hasbrowns are a family favorites, but instead of making a huge batch of hasbrowns in the oven, I decided to whip up these little patties in a skillet for a delicious side dish.
I have been a little MIA around here because I am on Christmas break. It has been less break and more house work really. I have been painting up a storm at our new house. I started with whitewashing the fireplace. I can’t lie, I was very scared I would ruin the fireplace, but the 70’s brick needed a face-lift big time! I didn’t want to just paint it, because I am not a huge fan of that look, whitewash on the other hand seemed appealing.
I watched numerous YouTube videos and read countless blog tutorials and finally felt prepared to take the paint to the brick. When it was all done, I was very happy with the look (excuse the horrible cell phone pictures!). It just dulled the dark brick slightly and freshened the room up. Now I just need to get rid of that horrible black granite and replace it with some reclaimed wood for a warmer look.
