Grab Those Garden Veggies!

This breakfast hash is what dreams are made of! Tons of protein-packed ingredients (hi, eggs, lean breakfast sausage and zucchs!), and we’re here to tell you that you can go right ahead and use any veggies you have on hand or in abundance in your garden.

This recipe calls for zucchini, green peppers onion, and potatoes, but if you have tons of peppers and no zucchini on hand, feel free to substitute! You really can make this your own!

Magic of Baked Eggs

Baked eggs. I could eat you all day errrrry day! And the best part of these baked eggs is that you crack them right into your cast iron skillet with the rest of your hash ingredients and bake ’em all together at once. One pot meals FTW!

How to Make this Garden Breakfast Hash

This breakfast hash truly is a one pot meal! All you’ll need is your cast iron skillet and a cutting board to slice up your veggies. Let’s get into it:

PREHEAT AND PREP

First, preheat your oven to 350ºF. Then, slice up:

  • Zucchini
  • Green pepper (and bell pepper will do!)
  • Potato (feel free to use a sweet tater if you prefer!)
  • Zucchini
  • Onion

SAUTÉ BREAKFAST SAUSAGE

Next, heat a large cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat on your stovetop. Once it’s hot, add in the pork sausage. Sauté for around 2 minutes to partially cook. Pro tip: When there is just a little bit of pink showing, remove pork from stove and set aside.

Add in the Veggies

Add 1 tablespoon of olive oil to the pan and use a wooden utensil to scrape the brown, crispy bits (from your delicious breakfast sausage) from the bottom. Then, add the diced potato and cook for 2 minutes.

Next, add zucchini, onion, and green pepper and season with salt, pepper, and garlic powder. Cook for around 4 minutes to partially cook veggies.

Crack Eggs and BAKE!

Remove cast iron skillet from heat, and then layer the partially cooked pork sausage on top of the veggies. Then, crack 4-6 eggs on top of the sausage.

Bake your breakfast hash at 350ºF for around 20 minutes depending on how runny you like your egg yolks.

Yummm! This looks fantastic. I always like to try out new breakfast recipes on weekends for John and I when I have more time to spend on breakfast. He would love this too, minus the pepper, onion, and zucchini. ๐Ÿ˜› #pickyboyfriendproblems I’ll just have to make it for myself. He can have cereal haha.

I’d have to say my camera horror story is when I dropped my beloved DSLR on the ground (carpet!) and it knocked something loose in the lens. Thankfully the replacement lens wasn’t nearly as expensive as the body would have been if I broke that.

Ughhhhhhhhhh. I would die if that happened. What lens did you break?! Just the kit lens?

Thankfully, it was just the kit lens and not something super fancy but since then I’ve been superrrr careful!

Beautyyyy. This makes me want to snuggle up by a campfire with ratchet utensils and big blankets.
Oof sorry to hear about the camera situation! I’m sure it was a blast with some awesome views though. ๐Ÿ™‚

Yummy! This breakfast scramble looks fabulous and honestly, I’d eat this for lunch or dinner too! My dad has a garden, in fact, we’ll be seeing him tomorrow and he has lots of fresh veggies for me. I can’t wait!

FACT- I totally screen shot-ed your snap.

FACT- This looks absolutely insane and I’m obsessed with baked eggs….even moreso now theres meat in it. I luckily don’t have any horror camera stories, except when I travelled Europe and lost my photo card. FAIL.

Haha, I went to Spain for a whole week. I packed my camera, the charge and all. In the plane I realised I forgot the memory card ^^ My friend helped me out ๐Ÿ™‚

I have a mini mini herb balcony garden. I have about 6 pots with chives, basil and parsley. My turtoises love them and so am I! Fresh herbs whenever I need them.

AMAZING! OMG I should have told my story about when I went to Italy. I had just landed and tried to use my camera, only to realize that my battery was dead and that I forgot the charger. What did I do? Pay a butt load of money to buy a new camera in Florence. Everything is like twice as much in Europe. WTF!
