How to Make Weekend Baked Hash Browns

Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a 9x13 inch baking dish.
In a large bowl, combine the melted butter, chopped onion, bell pepper, and minced garlic. Mix well.
Add the Simply Potatoes® hash browns to the bowl and gently toss to coat evenly with the butter mixture.
Spread the hash brown mixture evenly in the prepared baking dish.
Sprinkle the crumbled bacon, cheddar cheese, salt, pepper, and paprika over the hash browns.
Cover the baking dish with aluminum foil and bake for 30 minutes.
Remove the foil and bake for another 20 minutes, or until the hash browns are golden brown and crispy and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Let stand for 10 minutes before serving. Top with sour cream, if desired.
