ingredients
- 2 (15 ounce) cans corn beef hash, not reduced fat
- 1 cup red bell peppers (mixed-can use pre-cut frozen) or 1 cup green bell pepper, chopped (mixed-can use pre-cut frozen)
- 1⁄4 cup chili sauce, such as Heinz
- 1⁄2 teaspoon pepper
- 2 cups canned french fried potato sticks
- 8 medium eggs
directions
- Grease cookie sheet.
- Stir hash, peppers, chili sauce and pepper until well blended. Divide into 8 portions, and shape into 3 1/2" patties.
- For each patty, spread 1/4 cup potato sticks on waxed paper, place patty on top, and press potato sticks into bottom and sides. Don't be afraid to add more to make them look like nests!
- With back of a spoon, make a 2" wide, 1" deep indentation in the top of each patty, (large enough for an egg).
- With wide spatula, lift nests onto prepared cookie sheet. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate overnight.
- Next morning, heat oven to 400* F. Uncover nests and bake 25 minutes, or until very hot and slightly browned.
- Remove pan from oven; break one egg into each nest. (Don't worry if some white runs out), return to oven and bake 6-8 minutes until whites are fully set.
- Transfer to serving platter with wide spatula, and see your guests smile!

I LOVE to cook and bake nearly everything!
I HATE to see people join the site, have no published recipes, but rag on another cook in a review on a recipe they haven't even tried or didn't follow.
Oh, and I hate cilantro, too. :)
