Adventure #5: Simple Breakfast Hash


It has been a while since I posted a delectable culinary adventure. I guess that a busy life limits the number of adventures in said life. Nevertheless, I did have a delicious breakfast yesterday which I would like to share. It was incredibly simple and can be easily adjusted to fit your tastes in breakfast foods.

Simple Breakfast Hash (I would call it a skillet if I had a fancy skillet to serve it in, but I'm not as well equipped as Village Inn haha)

Ingredients:
  • 1-2 cups of frozen southern style hash browns (essentially cubed potatoes that have been blanched)
  • 2-3 large eggs
  • 1/2 cup frozen peppers and onions (or fresh if you feel like cutting up some peppers and onions)
  • 1-2 Tablespoons butter (you gotta get some yummy flavor on those hash browns)
  • 1 handful shredded mexican blend cheese
Procedure:
  1. Saute (medium-high temperature) peppers and onions in butter until they are tender. Season to taste (salt and pepper).
  2. Add southern style hash browns and begin to brown them (That's why they are called hash browns, right?)
  3. As the potatoes get brown, form a little "nest" in the skillet and crack the eggs into the middle of the nest. Reduce heat to medium-low to ensure that the potatoes won't burn as the egg cooks.
  4. Cover the frying pan and allow egg to cook until the white is no longer runny (If it's still a little runny on top, it's OK. The next step is to broil the whole pan.)
  5. Sprinkle cheese onto the eggs and hash browns and place under the broiler until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
  6. Serve with buttered toast, yogurt, fresh fruit, or whatever else you like with your breakfast.
  7. Enjoy!
