Hashbrown & Eggs with Tomatillo Salsa
Not a fan of doing dishes? Use an oven-proof skillet for this hearty breakfast dish, and go from stove-to oven-to your stomach, in under 30 minutes!
This is a layered kind of cooking technique, where the hashbrowns are cooked first, then some eggs are cracked over the hashbrowns then the whole skillet is placed in the oven to finish cooking until the eggs are done to your likeness. The best part for me though, is topping it with some fresh homemade salsa.
