½ cup finely chopped mushrooms
½ cup finely chopped red bell pepper
2 cups AllWhites® egg whites

Steps:

Heat oven to 400 degrees F. Grease 12-cup regular muffin cup pan; set aside. In medium bowl combine hash browns, melted butter and salt; mix well. Press about 1/4 cup hash brown mixture into each muffin cup lining bottom and sides. Bake for 12 to 15 minutes or until edges are golden brown.
