Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients

  • 1lb, 4oz bag pre-shredded potatoes (or shred your own to same weight)
  • 4 Nature's Yoke Free-Range Eggs (at room temperature if you have have time)
  • 8 slices bacon, cooked and chopped
  • 1 green pepper, chopped
  • 6 spring onions, chopped (use whites and some of the greens, plus thinly slice some of the green parts for the garnish)
  • 1/3 cup extra virgin olive oil
  • 2 cups medium cheddar cheese, shredded

Garnish

  • 1 avocado, sliced
  • 1 jalapeña, thinly sliced
  • 2 radishes
  • sprinkle of thinly sliced spring onion greens (leftover from your main ingredient list)

Instructions
 

  • Heat oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Lay hash browns on paper towel and pat dry to remove extra moisture.
  • Put hash browns, green peppers, onions and bacon into a large bowl, stir until mixed. 
  • Pour oil into skillet and turn heat up to medium. Make sure skillet is good and hot before adding your hash browns.
  • Pour in your hash brown mixture into skillet and let fry for 5 minutes. You should hear them sizzling as the mixture cooks.
  • Once golden brown flip the hash brown mixture over and cook additional 5 minutes until the other side is also golden brown.
  • Crack eggs, one at a time, in a separate small bowl being careful to keep the yolks intact. Pour each egg with intact yolk over your hash brown mixture. If any yolks break, put those in a separate container in the fridge and use for a different recipe or for scrambling later.
  • Transfer skillet to the oven and bake 12-15 minutes or until eggs are no longer transparent. The whites should be white, but the yolks still runny.
  • Once eggs are cooked remove from oven and sprinkle with cheese. Let sit for 3-5 minutes to allow cheese melt.
  • Garnish with avocado, jalapeño, radishes and green onion.
  • Cut into slices and serve.
