Cooking spray

1 1/2  cups  frozen Southern-style hash brown potatoes (such as Ore-Ida)

1/2  cup  chopped onion

1/3  cup  diced Canadian bacon (about 2 ounces)

1/2  teaspoon  salt

1/4  cup  (1 ounce) shredded smoked cheddar or smoked mozzarella cheese

2  tablespoons  chopped green onions

Green onion strips (optional)

Preheat broiler.

Heat a 10-inch nonstick skillet coated with cooking spray over medium-high heat. Add potatoes, onion, and bacon; saute 8 minutes or until potatoes are golden brown. Remove from pan. Wipe pan clean with paper towels; recoat with cooking spray. Combine salt, hot sauce, pepper, eggs, and egg whites in a medium bowl, stirring with a whisk. Stir in potato mixture, cheese, and chopped green onions.

Heat pan over medium heat. Pour in egg mixture. Reduce heat to medium-low; cook 3 minutes or until bottom is lightly browned, lifting edges and tilting skillet as eggs cook to allow uncooked portion to flow underneath cooked portion.
