Description

These savory potato cheddar nests are a real eye-catcher at any brunch buffet! The combination of crispy potatoes, spicy bacon and creamy cheddar is simply irresistible. And the best part: With the Thermomix® they are prepared in no time at all. I especially like to make them when I have guests, because they are super easy to prepare and are always a highlight. If you like it vegetarian, you can simply leave out the bacon. An absolute must for all potato and cheese fans!
