Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 8 large Eggs Use large eggs for the best results.
  • 1/4 cup Cream A splash of cream enhances the eggs' flavor and richness.
  • 2 tablespoons Butter Butter adds a nice, savory taste to the scrambled eggs.
  • 2 tablespoons Canola Oil This oil helps cook the hash browns to a perfect crisp.
  • 3 cups Hash Browns Use frozen or homemade hash browns for a hearty base.
  • 1 cup Veggies (bell peppers, onions, or spinach) Choose vegetables for freshness and color.
  • 1 cup Cooked Ham Cooked ham adds protein and flavor to the dish.
  • 1 cup Shredded Cheese Shredded cheese melts well and enhances the taste.

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Heat a large skillet over medium heat and add butter. Allow it to melt completely.
  2. Crack the eggs into a mixing bowl. Pour in the cream and whisk until well combined.
  3. Pour the egg mixture into the hot skillet with melted butter. Reduce heat to low and scramble until just underdone. Set aside on a plate.
  4. In the same skillet, add canola oil. Heat over medium heat, then add the hash browns.
  5. Spread the hash browns out evenly. Cook for 5 minutes, then scrape and turn. Continue cooking until golden brown, about another 5 minutes.
  6. Stir in the chopped vegetables and ham. Cook together for an additional 5-10 minutes.
  7. Remove the skillet from heat. Layer scrambled eggs, hash browns, and ham mixture in containers. Top with shredded cheese.

Notes

Use fresh ingredients for the best flavor, don’t overcook the eggs, prepare in batches, store in airtight containers, and reheat for best texture.
