WHAT ARE EGGS AND POTATO HASH?
This is self-explantory - eggs and potato hash is a classic breakfast meal with fluffy cheesy scrambled eggs and crispy, golden-brown seasoned potatoes. Add in any other veggies and sauces of choice and you’ll be off to a delicious start to your day.
INGREDIENTS
Russet potato: Russet potatoes are commonly used for potato hashes. It's widely available, affordable, and has a nice starchy texture.
Egg Beaters: Marcos here reflect using Egg Beaters, which is a brand of cartoned egg whites. These are 25 calories and 5 grams of protein per serving.
Velveeta cheese slices: I like using Velveeta Slices since it's generally the lowest calorie one.
Olive oil: This will help the seasonings stick to the potatoes but also for a little bit of flavor.
Salt, black pepper, paprika: To season!
Ranch: Ranch can be used as an optional dip. For better marcos, opt for the Bolthouse Farms Ranch Yogurt Dressing which is 50 calories per serving, whereas light ranch is about 60 calories per serving and regular ranch is about 160 calories per serving.
No sugar added ketchup: Heinz No Sugar Added Ketchup is about 10 calories per serving, whereas regular ketchup is about 20 calories per serving.
Parsley: Optional garnish.
