Instructions (4 steps)

01Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Line 2 cookie sheets with foil (for easy clean up) and set aside.
02In a large bowl, put 20 ounce bag of Simply Potatoes Southwest Style Hash Browns that have been squeezed in paper towels to remove extra moisture. Stir in beaten eggs, flour, grated carrot, chopped red pepper, scallions, chopped cilantro, taco seasoning, salt and pepper.

03Heat a non-stick griddle pan on medium high heat while you are blending the ingredients. Melt 1 teaspoon vegetable oil with 1 tablespoon butter together in the pan, and using a half cup measure, scoop out four servings of potato mixture and put onto hot griddle. With a spatula, press down to flatten to approximately 1/4 inch thick and cook for 3 to 5 minutes or till crisp and brown on the bottom. Flip each patty over, cook till brown on bottom, and place on the prepared cookie sheets. Repeat with remaining potato, vegetable oil and butter.
