I recently have been trying to eat more plant based and remove meat from my diet as much as possible. This is such a yummy and savory breakfast option and can easily be modified to vegan eaters or meat lovers. I bolded the ingredients below that can be modified.

Note* I did not use pork in my recipe but I did use all the other ingredients, including cheese. Bon Appetit
- 1 poblano pepper
- 1 pound bulk pork sausage (not in my recipe but can easily be added for meat lovers)
- 2 tablespoons butter, divided
- 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
- 3 bell peppers, diced
- 1 large sweet potato, peeled and cut into 1/2-inch cubes
- 1 cup diced onion
- ¾ teaspoon chili powder
- ¾ teaspoon ground cumin
- ½ teaspoon red pepper flakes
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- ½ teaspoon salt, divided
- ½ teaspoon ground black pepper, divided
- 4 eggs (the eggs are a topping and optional to keep it vegan)
- ¼ cup salsa
- ¼ cup shredded Monterey Jack cheese (can easily be substituted for began cheese)
- ¼ cup chopped fresh cilantro
Directions:
- Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil.
- Halve poblano lengthwise; remove seeds and membranes. Put cut sides down on the prepared baking sheet; roast until skins are charred, about 20 minutes. Wrap foil around pepper halves and let stand until cool enough to handle, 20 to 30 minutes.
- Meanwhile, brown sausage in a large skillet over medium heat, stirring to break up lumps, about 5 minutes. Transfer to a plate; drain grease.
- Return the skillet to medium heat; melt 1 tablespoon butter with the oil. Stir in bell peppers, sweet potato, onion, chili powder, cumin, red pepper flakes, and garlic. Cook, stirring occasionally, until vegetables are tender and starting to brown, 20 to 25 minutes.
- Peel and chop the poblano; add to the skillet, along with sausage, and 1/4 teaspoon each salt and black pepper. Cook until heated through, 1 to 2 minutes. Transfer to a serving platter and keep warm.
- Rinse the skillet, return to heat, and melt remaining 1 tablespoon butter. Crack eggs into the skillet; sprinkle with remaining 1/4 teaspoon each salt and black pepper. Reduce heat to low and cook until whites are completely set and yolks begin to thicken, 3 to 4 minutes.
- Top hash with eggs and serve with salsa, cheese, and cilantro.
