Notes

Feel free to customize your hash with various vegetables or proteins; leftovers can be used in burritos or stuffed into peppers. To add eggs, create wells in the hash and crack an egg into each, covering the skillet to cook until set. This hash can be prepared ahead by chopping ingredients in advance, and it reheats beautifully in a skillet for maximum crispiness. Try different sausages for unique flavor profiles and explore side options like fresh fruit or buttered toast for a balanced meal.
