Breakfast Hash Recipe

Some of my favorite recipes have happened as a result of poor planning. I had a fridge semi-stocked, but not a whole lot of meat to work with. At least, not thawed meat. Most of it was in my freezer, and I had yet again forgotten to take something out to thaw for that evening. So, what did I do? Breakfast for dinner of course! This recipe is great because you only dirty one frying pan! Hooray for fewer dishes to wash!

We begin with bacon. I am going to warn you ahead of time, I start a lot of my recipes with bacon. In the words of my father, "Bacon don't need no reason". I will probably needlepoint those words on a pillow some time in my life. But that is a project for another day. Back to the recipe.

Get those bacon slices crackling in the pan. I had the thick cut bacon on hand so I only used a couple of slices. Besides, it's the bacon grease you want. Once the bacon is cooked up, remove the slices to let them cool. You can chop them up for bacon bits to add at the end.

Add your cubed potatoes to the bacon grease. Add a little salt and pepper, and fry until golden brown. Remove the taters from the pan.

Add a swirl of olive oil (about a tablespoon) to the pan. Add your diced onion and bell pepper and a little salt and pepper to taste. Saute those veggies until they get nice and soft.

Add your sliced green onions and some minced garlic. While your green onions and garlic get cozy with the onions and peppers, time to get those eggs ready.

This is my son's favorite part. Crack those eggs into a bowl. Add some milk and salt and pepper. Get a fork, and scramble them up.

Add the eggs to the veggies and stir while cooking them to a delicious scramble.

When your eggs are ALMOST done, add those taters back in to heat through.

Add some cheese and those bacon bits from earlier, and voila! Breakfast for Dinner!

This is how our dinner turned out. K had to have his airplane be a part of the photo. He got blueberries with his dinner. You can also add your favorite salsa or hot sauce for an extra little kick. The hubby likes sriracha on his hash.

You can switch up the veggies, or add some sausage too! I would love to hear how your Breakfast for Dinner turns out!

Happy Cooking!
