Ingredients
Scale
- Frozen hash browns or grated potatoes
- 2–3 medium potatoes (if making from scratch)
- Large eggs
- Cheddar cheese (or mozzarella, pepper jack, or dairy-free cheese)
- Bell peppers
- Onions
- Spinach
- Beef sausage or bacon
- Turkey sausage or plant-based sausage (optional)

Instructions
- Prepare the Hash Browns: If using frozen hash browns, cook them according to the package instructions until they are crispy. If making from scratch, grate about 2-3 medium potatoes, squeeze out excess moisture, and sauté in a hot skillet with a bit of oil until golden brown.
- Cook the Meat: In a separate pan, cook your choice of beef sausage or bacon over medium heat until fully cooked and crispy. If using turkey sausage or a vegetarian alternative, follow the cooking instructions on the package.
- Sauté the Vegetables: In the same skillet used for the meat, add a little more oil if needed and sauté chopped onions and bell peppers for about 3-4 minutes. Add spinach at the end and cook until wilted.
- Scramble the Eggs: In a bowl, whisk the eggs and season with salt and pepper. Pour the eggs into the skillet with the sautéed vegetables, stirring gently until they are fully cooked.
- Assemble the Bowls: Start with a generous portion of crispy hash browns at the bottom of each bowl. Layer on the cooked meat, followed by the scrambled eggs and vegetables.
- Add Cheese: Sprinkle shredded cheese over the top while everything is still warm, allowing it to melt slightly.
- Garnish: Top with fresh herbs like parsley or chives, and if desired, add avocado slices or salsa for an extra kick.
