I love making any kind of hash, and not just for breakfast. It's my go-to meal when I don't have time to cook or don't feel like cooking. It's quick and you won't need any special skills.
Although I used zucchini, you can try any of your favourite veggies: Brussels sprouts, turnips, kale, broccoli or cauliflower - all work great! Then, add some protein like bacon, minced meat or chicken and season with spices and herbs of your liking. Top with a fried egg or avocado and your hash is done!
Here are two of my other recipes to try: Ultimate Bacon Hash and Brussels Sprout & Bacon Hash and more breakfast ideas are here :-)
