📝 Instructions

10 steps
1

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

2

Place the frozen hash brown patties on the baking sheet and bake for 20-25 minutes, flipping halfway through, until golden and crispy.

3

While the hash browns bake, heat the olive oil in a nonstick skillet over medium heat.

4

In a small bowl, whisk together the eggs with a pinch of salt and pepper. Pour the eggs into the skillet and stir gently to scramble them until just set. Remove from heat and set aside.

5

In a small saucepan, heat the black beans over low heat. Stir in the cumin, a pinch of salt, and a splash of water to warm through. Remove from heat once heated.

6

Dice the avocado and halve the cherry tomatoes. Chop the fresh cilantro.

7

Once the hash browns are crispy and golden, remove them from the oven and place them on serving plates.

8

To assemble each haystack, layer on scrambled eggs, black beans, shredded cheese, avocado, and cherry tomatoes over each hash brown patty.

9

Top with a dollop of sour cream, a drizzle of salsa, and a sprinkle of cilantro.

10

Serve immediately and enjoy your Tex Mex-inspired breakfast haystacks!
