Potato Hash Breakfast

April 14, 2020

Easter was a little different this year with the quarantine going on. Greg and I stayed in our apartment, just the two of us. I wanted to make something yummy and hearty! Before quarantine I tried a hash brown skillet at a restaurant and it was so good, so I thought I would try and make it myself! It turned out delicious and was a hit with Greg as well! Here is the recipe so you can try it out 🙂

Ingredients:

  • Olive oil
  • Half a yellow onion
  • 1 green pepper
  • Salt
  • Pepper
  • Fajita seasoning
  • 6 slices of bacon
  • Vegetable oil
  • Frozen hash browns
  • 2 eggs
  • Hot sauce
  • Green onions

Directions:

  1. Dice up your green pepper and half of a yellow onion. Put some oil in a pan over medium high heat. Add the onions and peppers. Sprinkle with salt, pepper, and fajita seasoning. Cook until the vegetables are soft. Set aside. 
  2. Fry up your bacon in a pan over medium high heat. Place cooked pieces on a plate with a paper towel. The paper towel will soak up any extra grease from the bacon. 
  3. Get a large skillet and poor 4-6 TBSP of vegetable oil into the pan over medium to medium-high heat. Cook the hash browns for 6 minutes on one side and then flip over and cook for another 6 minutes. Then, I stir mine up to get them a little more crispy! While those cook, chop up the bacon into ½ inch pieces.
  4. Once your hash browns are cooked and crispy, add in the veggies and bacon, stirring everything up to get warm. 
  5. While the hash browns are finishing up, add about 2-3 TBSP of oil to a small pan. Once hot, crack an egg into the pan. Sprinkle it with salt and pepper. Once the white is mostly cooked, flip once to cook the other side. I like my egg to be over medium so it runs into the hash browns. The egg will cook very fast, so don’t walk away! 
  6. Spoon the hash brown mix into bowls and top with a fried egg. Sprinkle with green onions and a little hot sauce. You can also slip in some extra bacon if you have left over pieces!

Servings: About 2

I hope you enjoy this hearty breakfast! Balance it out with a delicious cup of coffee and some fruit. Enjoy!
