Double Cheese, Bacon, Mushroom, and Egg Hash

This easy breakfast skillet is made with pantry staples and it’s ready in 40 minutes!

Lazy Pantry Breakfast

I feel like I’m always the least prepared when it comes to breakfast. I’m great with meal prepping lunch, dinner, and snacks but with breakfast, I’m 50/50, mainly because I love sleeping in so sometimes I miss breakfast completely.

But if I manage to wake up early and don’t have anything prepped, this potato hash is my go to since it’s mainly comprised of budget friendly pantry staples. Potatoes last forever in dark cool storage, same with mushrooms, eggs are always in the fridge, and I always buy a packs of bacon whenever it’s on sale. 

What You’ll Need To Make This Pantry Breakfast

• potatoes: use what you have, yukon, russet, red, etc
• olive oil
• bacon
• mushrooms
• eggs: room temperature
• shredded mozzarella cheese or cheddar
• salt and pepper

How To Make This Breakfast

• Dice potatoes into small even cubes: uneven cuts may change cook time.
• Heat the oil in a cast iron skillet (or non-stick pan) over medium heat.
• Put in the potatoes to cook while stirring occasionally, until golden and crispy for about 20 minutes.
• Add the bacon pieces to the skillet and fry while stirring occasionally until crisp.
• Add in the mushrooms half way through cooking through the bacon.
• Mix throughly.
• With a wooden spoon, make 3 pockets in the hash, crack an egg into each pocket.
• Sprinkle on the cheese, as much as you’d like.
• Cook until the eggs are just a bit undercooked as the heat from the cast iron will continue to cook your eggs when you take it off the stovetop.

Note: You can add an additional egg to make this into 4 servings if you have a large enough cast iron!

Ingredient Substitute Ideas 

• instead of potatoes, try: sweet potato, yam
• instead of mushrooms, try: onions, sliced peppers
• instead of bacon, try: pancetta, ham
• more vegetable ideas you could add: cauliflower, broccoli, baby spinach, cherry tomatoes
