Base
- 2 cups frozen or fresh hash browns
Eggs
- 2 large eggs (fried, scrambled, or poached)
Cheese
- 1/2 cup shredded sharp cheddar or Monterey Jack cheese
Vegetables
- 1/2 cup diced bell peppers
- 1/2 cup diced onions
- 1/2 avocado, sliced
Herbs & Toppings
- 1 tablespoon chopped fresh chives or cilantro
- 2 tablespoons salsa or hot sauce
- Oil for cooking (such as olive oil or vegetable oil)
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Prepare the Hash Browns: If using frozen hash browns, cook them on medium-high heat in a skillet with a bit of oil until golden and crispy on all sides. For fresh, grate potatoes, squeeze out excess moisture, season with salt and pepper, and fry in oil until crunchy and golden.
- Sauté the Vegetables: In another pan, heat a small amount of oil and sauté diced bell peppers and onions until softened and lightly caramelized for a sweet, savory flavor layer.
- Cook the Eggs: Cook the eggs to your preference—fried sunny side up to enjoy a rich, runny yolk or scrambled for easier mixing with the bowl ingredients.
- Assemble the Bowl: Place crispy hash browns at the bottom of your bowl, then layer sautéed veggies on top. Add cooked eggs, sprinkle shredded cheese over the warm hash browns for melting, add avocado slices, and finish with fresh herbs and a drizzle of salsa or hot sauce.
- Serve Immediately: Enjoy your bowl hot to experience the perfect contrast of crispy hash browns, melty cheese, and fresh toppings that keep each bite exciting.
Notes
- Use medium-high heat and avoid overcrowding the pan to ensure the hash browns get crispy, not soggy.
- Drain excess moisture from fresh potatoes and avocado to maintain crispiness.
- Cook eggs last to keep them warm and fresh for serving.
- Season in layers throughout cooking to build depth of flavor.
- Add fresh herbs right before serving to preserve their bright flavor.
