This breakfast hash featuring onions, green, red and yellow peppers plus jalapeno peppers for a kick is scrambled with egg beaters. The mixture was cooked in a non skillet pan without using cooking spray or oil. Instead I just used little water to cook first the vegetables and then poured the egg beaters into the softened vegetables and cooked it in the leftover water with stirring. The breakfast hash is then served in lettuce leaves to make it low carb with tomato salsa. One can also eat the hash on a tortilla if you are not do not mind a few carbs.
The seasoning of garlic powder and cumin enhance the taste of the hash so that you will not miss the saltiness or smokiness of a bacon or sausage. This is a very satisfying and delicious not to mention healthy breakfast alternative for you and your family. Try it!
