On weekends I love to make this satisfying breakfast hash with sausage and eggs. It’s my go to breakfast to get me through the day when I’m running errands and doing chores. It just gives me much needed energy for the busy weekend. When I was growing up, breakfast was a very important meal. My Mom used to make this for us very often.
You can easily make this breakfast hash with just a few ingredients that most people already have in the fridge. You can use store-bought frozen potatoes O’brien, eggs, any sausage you like, and red bell pepper. I like to use potatoes O’brien because it already has the onions and bell pepper in it with the potatoes. You can use turkey or pork breakfast sausage, little smokies, or beef sausage. I like to add a bit more fresh red bell pepper for more color and flavor.

Make the Breakfast Hash
To get started, slice the sausage about 1/2 inch cubes. If you are using small breakfast sausage, just slice them. Next, be sure to use a cast iron skillet or any non-stick oven-proof pan. Then, cook the sausage in a little oil for about three minutes. Set aside the sausage and start cooking the potatoes and red bell pepper for five minutes turning once. Season it lightly with salt and freshly ground pepper. Crack the eggs on top of the potatoes and sausage. Make sure to season the eggs with a little salt. To finish the cooking process, place the skillet in the oven at 350 degrees. Let it cook for 15 minutes. When it’s ready, the eggs come out perfectly soft.
