Christmas morning we always have cinnamon rolls and Mom’s Christmas Bake. It’s the perfect combo. I lightened this one up a little bit to keep it macro friendly, but it’s still really amazing. Chad prepped this for breakfast for himself for 6 months straight one time. It’s that good.
My mom’s original recipe calls for double the bacon, pork sausage, whole eggs, and all hasbrowns. As you can imagine, it’s over the top good. I found that reducing the amount of bacon and sausage, and subbing in half sweet potatoes and egg whites is still really good and makes this much easier to fit into your macros daily. I fully enjoy her full fat version on Christmas though, I’m just sayin!
If you give this one a try let me know! I love to see what you’re making! Tag us on Instagram @stayfitmom_krista or leave a comment below! Thank you!

My husband and I are obsessed with this recipe — we love it! And it’s a great, easy meal to make for people with new babies or who just had surgeries.
Do you have a suggestion / recommendation for a way to double the recipe to cook one and then freeze the other? Cooking instructions for the frozen one?
Thanks so much!
Hi! I cannot find the hash browns or anything similar in my area. What would you substitute? Can I use regular bagged hash browns? How much would you use? thanks!
Hi Jenna. 1 box of the dehydrated hash browns makes about 3.5 cups cooked hash browns.
Good morning! When you say “cooked” hash browns, do you mean fry them up or just rehydrate them with water? Thank you!
Hi Kristine, I just mean rehydrate them. No need to brown them for this one.
