Prep-Ahead Breakfast Hash Considerations:

Why Use Larger Potato Chunks?

Larger chunked potato hash browns are preferred for this recipe because they maintain their structural integrity much better than smaller chunks or shredded hash browns do. They also tend to clump less, allowing the flavour to spread throughout the mix and giving you an easier cooking experience.

Vegetarian Alternatives

For our vegetarian or vegan friends, simply leave out the bacon and consider adding an extra pepper to bulk up the volume of the dish.

Serving Suggestions:

This freezer meal breakfast hash is as versatile as breakfasts get. Keep pairings simple for a quick school or work morning breakfast or use this as an easy addition to a full breakfast feast. It even works well for those well loved breakfast-for-dinner evenings.

Serve with eggs (sunny-side up, scrambled, over-easy, or poached, depending on your preferred cooking method), your favourite breakfast meat (breakfast sausage, diced ham, fried spam), and any fresh fruit you have on hand. And don’t forget to drizzle in ketchup, BBQ, or hot sauce for the perfect finish.
