These Low Carb Cauliflower Hash Browns are my new favorite breakfast! Quick, easy, and oh-so-yummy! Perfect with some eggs or turkey bacon!
Confession #143- One way the 80 Day Obsession has been good for me is I am back to eating a full and complete breakfast in the morning.
It’s these damn 60 minute workouts…they are impossible to do at any other time of the day besides the morning, and even if I am not following timed nutrition perfectly, I am STARVING at the end of each sweat sesh.
I have been known before to drink a million cups of coffee all morning long and then, sometime close to lunch, realize I still hadn’t eaten yet. Awesome for a nearly 40 year old metabolism, right?
But not now…I have been eating all the delicious foods and loving every second.
And these Low Carb Cauliflower Hash Browns are a new favorite. So darn good and only three ingredients.
Have you bought or made the Trader Joe’s Everything Bagel Seasoning yet? Guys – this is just one of the million ways I use it every day…to find out more ways, check out this post!
Anyway, for this, just mix 1 cup of cauliflower rice, 1 egg, and some of the Everything Bagel Seasoning (or seasoning of your choice) and mix it up.
Spray a pan with cooking oil spray and melt a 1/2 tsp of butter. Scoop half the batter onto the pan and cook over medium heat for a few minutes or until the edges start to brown. I kind of flatten It while cooking to help it form a hash brown patty of sorts.
And it does pretty easily. After the first one is finished, cook up a second hash brown using the remaining ingredients, following the same technique.
And that’s literally it! This makes one serving, so you can eat the entire recipe yourself…or double/triple to share or make for the week. I love serving it with eggs or breakfast meat…and a side of oatmeal muffins and fruit.
Sometimes I even serve it up with a dollop of plain Greek yogurt, so it ends up having a potato pancake kind of feel.
So much yum.

OK, first of all, let me say that I have absolutely loved every single one of your recipes I have made! They are always delicious and healthy. This blog is my “go to” for healthy recipes, so thank you! This one, however, was not one of my favorites, lol! However, I think it can easily be modified to fit my personal taste. 🙂 I just felt like it needs more seasoning, including salt (and I’m not a big “salt person”). Maybe the brand of my everything bagel seasoning is different. I’m going to try these again, but add salt and double the everything bagel seasoning. I think a little parmesean cheese might also be yummy. 🙂 I love getting vegetables in with my breakfast, so I’d love to keep this one!
Nancylynn says
Thanks for giving it another shot! I think your mods sound like a good start in making it to your liking!
Meredith says
I hear ya! I like doing a dollop of Greek yogurt and Siracha! (If you like a little kick) I also have added some cheese in them too which is yummy!
Nancylynn says
YUM!
Katrina says
Another amazing recipe Nancylynn! Thank you so much! I love how easy this is. Definitely something I can make while making all the kid breakfasts.
Nancylynn says
Oh that is such a win, Katrina! Thanks for taking the time to leave a comment and star rating, too!
Mary says
so easy and delish! did not use the yogurt, just a dab of fixate ketchup for a comfort hash brown!
Nancylynn says
YUM!
Shelby Hall says
So easy and delicious! I was getting tired of doing the same ol’ eggs, sautéed veggies and toast. This is absolutely going to be a part of my morning breakfast!
Nancylynn says
YES! So happy you found the recipe to add some variety to your week!
Danielle says
Thank you! These are delicious!
Danielle says
Hello, I’m confused a little by the serving size and instructions. The instructions you mention two split the batch in half to put in the pan, for me that would be two hash browns,the nutrition information says it’s for one hash brown, and it’s also mentioned that this recipe makes one hash brown. Just want to make sure I’m counting my containers correctly. Thank you!
Nancylynn says
You’re right, that WAS confusing! Sorry about that- all fixed now!
Ashlie says
Another winner. I used up mashed cauliflower and the whole family raved over these with a fried egg on top.
Nancylynn says
LOVE!!! Great job, Ashlie!!
Natalie Heffner says
Have you ever tried this with a flaxseed egg? Not sure if it would hold or how it would taste? I am sensitive to eggs but want to give this a try!
Nancylynn says
I haven’t, but if you try, please let us know!
Sidney Young says
What are some other mix-ins besides Everything bagel seasoning that would go well with these? I have a very picky eater who may not like the everything bagel seasoning.
Nancylynn says
Parmesan cheese, cheddar cheese, just salt, even! You can make it so many different ways!
Sarah Segovis says
This is soooo tasty! I added some Cholula and a little extra seasoning. Mmmmm! I’m going to make this again and see if my picky toddlers will go for it. 😛
Nancylynn says
Great idea! Good luck, toddlers are our toughest critics!!
Kaitlyn says
Do you recommend making these in an air fryer?
If so do you cook them first then use the air fryer to crisp or cook the whole thing in the air fryer? Thanks!
Nancylynn says
I haven’t tried this – I would maybe use parchment paper if you! I might try it – if I do I will let you know!
Jasminder Kaur says
I just made these today. I cooked the cauliflower a little .It’s a great filling recipe. Thanks.
Nancylynn says
I’m so glad to hear this!
Gina says
How did you get your cauliflower rice to take the shape of shredded cheese? Whenever I make it in my food processor, it looks much finer. Thanks!
Nancylynn says
Hi! Do you use the shredding tool? That’s what I use for mine!
Gina says
Perfect! That’s what I will do! Thank you so much 🙂
Nancylynn says
So welcome! Enjoy!
Kylee Robinson says
Yum! Can’t wait to try! I have a frozen bag of riced broccoli/cauliflower. Think that would work?
Nancylynn says
YES!!
Michelle says
So delicious! You’re recipes are some of my
Families favorites!
Nancylynn says
This makes me so happy, Michelle! Thanks for letting me know!
Erin says
Did you cook the cauliflower rice first? If so, what’s your preferred method?
Nancylynn says
Nope! I have used it raw and even frozen :).
Stevie says
How long do these last in the fridge? Any reheating instructions? Also, can you freeze them?
Nancylynn says
These will keep for a few days in the fridge! I think they would freeze well, but I haven’t tried. I think the microwave or heating quick in a pan would work perfectly!
Ashley says
OMG these are so good. I made with over easy egg on top. It felt like a lot of food. Hard to believe it was less than 200 calories. Grand slam, Nancylynn!
Nancylynn says
Right? It’s SO filling!! I am so happy to hear :).
Sherie says
Have you used this with frozen cauliflower rice?
Nancylynn says
Yes! Worked great!
Heidi says
So stupid question probably…cook it from frozen first? Or just use frozen and it’ll warm enough?
Nancylynn says
You can use it frozen or thawed!
Alice says
So easy! So very good! Thank you for sharing! What a quick and easy meal! <3
Nancylynn says
Thanks, Alice!
