1/2 c. diced fresh sweet red pepper, 3/8 inch squares
1/2 lg. sweet onion diced, 1/2 inch squares

5 med. baked potatoes, cold, cut into cubes (keep the peels on)

6- Serve with additional chopped cilantro, ketchup and if you have it on hand, a little plant parmasen cheese.
Notes: Hash browns are hash just like the word indicates. They’re not shredded potato or cubed potato. But who cares? Do what you want, call them what you want, that’s what freedom is all about.
Yet, it did dawn on me as I was processing these leftover baked potatoes to make a hash out of them, and further, a breakfast hash. Hash is made primarily from ground cooked potatoes.
Although I used only 1/2 cup JUST EGG, you could easily use a full cup. It binds the potato nicely.
