Thought I would share my Cajun Breakfast Hash Recipe. My family loves it, maybe yours will too.
Ingredients:
1 Bag Simply Potato Hash Browns
1 Green Bell Pepper (red, orange or yellow are also good) cubed
1/2 Medium Sized Onion – cube – use the whole thing if you don’t care about your breath that day.
6-8 eggs
3/4 lb Ground Spicy Italian Sausage
Louisiana Cajun Seasoning – “goes good on everything”
1/4 cup cooking oil
Heat up oil, I would say about 1/4 cup, in electric skillet (mine has about the area of a 9 x 11 cake pan). Once it is nice and hot (350 degrees mine says) pour in Simply Potato hash browns and spread them evenly. While those start to brown spread the sausage over the hash browns, I just pull off small size chunks.
Next, slice up green pepper and onion into cube sized pieces and spread on hash browns. Sprinkle a decent amount of cajun seasoning over everything. At this time you should be able to turn everything.
Now, I add the eggs in two different ways and it does affect the taste.
1. In a mixing bowl crack 8 eggs and add about 1/4 cup milk, whisk thoroughly. Make these eggs in a separate pan scrabbled style. Add to hash mixture and turn in until well mixed in with rest of ingredients. (this way should be started when you start the hash browns so you don’t over cook the hash browns waiting for your eggs)
2. I prefer this way cause it is easy and you get more of egg taste. After your first turn of the other ingredients crack your eggs over the hash browns, that’s right, right on top. Space them out accordingly. Cover the skillet and let eggs cook to medium. Fold right into everything else.
You may want to turn the hash a couple times to make sure everything is mixed well and cooked through.
Top with hot sauce, ketchup, sour cream, salsa or whatever else sounds delicious!
I like to make up some of my worlds greatest pancakes and serve the hash right on top of the pancake and top with syrup! PERFECT if your going to be out hunting or working all day, really sticks to your ribs!

I prefer a different kind of sausage. – Maybe a maple syrup or hot sauce.
The breakfast sausage definitely gives it a different flavor. Some beer brats from “last nights” grilling can also be diced up and added! I found that works pretty well especially if you forget to pick up some sausage.
