Cheesy Hashbrown & Ham Roll-Ups

Instructions:

1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and lightly coat with cooking spray or oil.
2. In a mixing bowl, combine hashbrowns, cheddar cheese, sour cream, garlic powder, salt, pepper, and green onions (if using). Stir until well mixed.
3. Lay out the ham slices on a clean surface. Spoon 2–3 tablespoons of the hashbrown mixture onto one end of each slice.
4. Roll each slice up tightly, enclosing the filling, and place seam-side down on the prepared baking sheet.
5. Lightly brush the tops with oil or spray to help them crisp in the oven.
6. Bake for 20–25 minutes, or until the filling is hot and the tops are lightly golden.
7. Let cool slightly before serving with your favorite dip or toppings.

Variations :

• Bacon Boost: Mix chopped cooked bacon into the hashbrown filling for extra smoky flavor.
• Veggie Add-In: Add finely chopped spinach, bell peppers, or mushrooms to the filling.
• Cheese Swap: Try Swiss, Monterey Jack, or pepper jack for a different cheesy twist.
• Egg It Up: Top with a fried or poached egg, or mix scrambled egg into the filling.
• Spicy Kick: Add hot sauce or a pinch of cayenne pepper to the hashbrown mixture.

Tips :

• Squeeze the hashbrowns well to avoid a soggy filling—excess moisture will prevent proper crisping.
• Use thick-cut ham for better structure; thin slices may tear during rolling.
• Make ahead: Assemble the roll-ups and refrigerate overnight, then bake fresh in the morning.
• For extra crispiness, bake directly on a wire rack set over a sheet pan.
• Serve with sauces like ranch, honey mustard, chipotle mayo, or classic ketchup for dipping fun.

These roll-ups are warm, cheesy, and packed with breakfast goodness—a playful and practical twist that turns simple ingredients into something truly craveable.
