# How to Make It:

Preheat the oven to 375°F. Lightly coat a muffin tin or small baking dish with non-stick spray.

04 -
Gently fold in the shredded cheddar cheese, crumbled turkey bacon, and chopped green onions until evenly distributed.

Spoon the mashed potato mixture into the prepared muffin tin or baking dish, pressing down lightly to compact.

Bake for 20 to 25 minutes or until the tops are golden brown and the edges are slightly crisp.
# Extra Suggestions:
01 -
Ensure the potatoes are drained well before mashing to achieve a creamy, non-watery texture.
