Creating Hashbrown and Cheese Stuffed is simple if you follow these steps:

1. Prepare the Hashbrowns: In a large mixing bowl, combine the thawed hashbrowns, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix well until the seasonings are evenly distributed.
2. Prepare the Cheese Filling: In another bowl, combine the cheddar cheese, mozzarella cheese, cream cheese, and chopped green onions. If you’re adding bacon, fold it in at this stage.
3. Form the Hashbrown Base: Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Take a handful of the hashbrown mixture and flatten it into a patty, about 1/2 inch thick. Place it in the skillet.
4. Add the Cheese Filling: After about 2-3 minutes of cooking, add a generous spoonful of the cheese mixture on top of the hashbrown patty.
5. Top with More Hashbrowns: Take another handful of the hashbrown mixture and flatten it into a second patty. Place this patty on top of the cheese filling, sealing the edges.
6. Cook Until Golden: Cook for an additional 4-5 minutes on this side, or until the hashbrown patties are golden brown and crispy.
7. Flip Carefully: Using a large spatula, carefully flip the entire stuffed hashbrown patty over to cook the other side for another 4-5 minutes until golden and crispy.
8. Repeat: Continue this process with the remaining hashbrown and cheese mixtures until all components are cooked.
9. Drain Excess Oil: Once cooked, place the stuffed hashbrowns on paper towels to absorb any excess oil.
10. Serve Warm: Enjoy them hot for the best texture and flavor.
