How to Make Loaded Breakfast Hash

Step 1: Cook the Bacon

In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the chopped bacon until crispy. Remove with a slotted spoon and set aside, leaving the bacon grease in the pan.

Step 2: Cook the Potatoes

Add the diced potatoes to the skillet and cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until golden and crispy (about 10-12 minutes). Add a little olive oil if needed.

Step 3: Sauté the Vegetables

Stir in the diced onion, bell pepper, and mushrooms. Cook until softened, about 5 minutes. Season with garlic powder, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper.

Step 4: Add the Eggs

Make small wells in the hash and crack an egg into each space. Cover and cook for 3-5 minutes until eggs are set to your desired doneness.

Step 5: Finish with Cheese and Bacon

Sprinkle shredded cheese over the hash and add the crispy bacon back to the pan. Cook for another minute until the cheese melts.

Step 6: Garnish and Serve

Top with fresh parsley or green onions and serve hot!
