Cheesy Skillet Eggs and Hash

September is National Breakfast Month, and what better way to celebrate than with breakfast for dinner?

Nellie’s Certified Humane Free Range Eggs sent me some coupons and other goodies so that I could make a recipe with their yummy eggs.

In the past, I’ve made Arugula Pizza with Poached Eggs, so I went a bit more traditional this time with a Mexican inspired Cheesy Skillet Eggs and Hash.

 

This recipe is easy to make but has a ton going on: potatoes, chorizo, eggs, cheese, salsa, and avocado all together to make a truly delicious breakfast (or breakfast for dinner)!

 

Ingredients:

  • 3 russet potatoes
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • ~10 oz uncooked chorizo, cut into bite sized pieces (I used 3 chorizo)
  • 1 large yellow onion, chopped
  • 4 oz shredded Cheddar Jack Cheese
  • 4 Nellie’s Certified Humane Free Range Eggs
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • Pico de Gallo or Salsa, to taste
  • 1 avocado, sliced
  • 1 green onion, sliced

Arugula Pizza with Poached Eggs

May is (was) National Egg Month, and, well, the month of May ended more abruptly than I was expecting. So, happy June, and happy belated National Egg Month! (This Friday, June 3rd, is National Egg DAY though, so you can celebrate your little heart out then.)

I love using eggs in dinner recipes, because I don’t get much opportunity for a nice sit down breakfast with eggs. This Cooking Light recipe is the perfect eggs-for-dinner meal — Arugula Pizza topped with Poached Eggs.

Nellie’s eggs sent me some coupons, plus a cool little kit that included a t-shirt, stress egg, and a gift card so that I could try their eggs in a post, and this recipe seemed like the perfect opportunity. Nellie’s are free range, the hens are never caged, and have as much or as little access to the outside as they’d like.

Nellie’s works with over 40 independent, family owned and operated farms to provide their free range eggs produced from Certified Humane Free Range hens that are antibiotic and hormone free.
