Mainstay's Registered Dietitian, Emily LaBombard, says: "Start your day right with a hearty, satisfying breakfast packed with protein, veggies, and flavor. This Breakfast Hash is the perfect balance of comfort and nutrition—and it’s built to keep you energized."
Ingredients (Serves 12):
· 5 lbs potatoes, diced into small cubes
· 2 lbs sausage or bacon, cooked and chopped
· 1 onion, diced
· 2 lbs frozen mixed vegetables
· 3 tbsp oil
· 2 tsp salt
· 1 tsp black pepper
· 1 tbsp garlic powder
· 12 eggs
Instructions:
1. Preheat oven to 400°F and line sheet pans with parchment for easy cleanup.
2. Dice potatoes into evenly sized pieces so they cook uniformly.
3. In a large bowl, toss potatoes with oil, salt, pepper, and garlic powder until fully coated.
4. Spread potatoes in an even layer on sheet pans—avoid overcrowding to ensure crispiness.
5. Roast for 25 minutes, stirring halfway through for even browning.
6. While potatoes cook, sauté diced onion (optional for added flavor) and cook sausage or bacon if not already prepared.
7. Remove potatoes from oven and add cooked meat, onions, and frozen vegetables. Toss everything together directly on the pan.
8. Return to oven and roast for an additional 20 minutes, or until vegetables are tender and potatoes are golden.
9. Cook eggs separately—fried for a classic look or scrambled for easy serving. Keep eggs slightly soft for best texture.
10. Serve about 2 cups of hash per person and top with one egg.
