Sausage and Sweet Pepper Hash

Sausage and Sweet Pepper Hash I love a good hearty meal in the morning, but getting one prepared in the mad dash to get the kids to school isn’t always easy. That’s why this is one of my favorite slow cooker breakfast meals. It just calls my name and I bet you’ll hear it calling yours too.

Ingredients:

12 ounces cooked, smoked sausage, quartered lengthwise, cut into ½-inch slices
1 teaspoon olive oil
½ cups sweet onion, sliced
Nonstick cooking spray
1 ½ pounds red potatoes, sliced into ½-inch pieces
2 teaspoons fresh thyme, snipped
½ teaspoon pepper
¼ cup reduced-sodium chicken broth
1 ½ cups sweet bell peppers, chopped (any color)
½ cup Swiss cheese, shredded
2 teaspoons fresh tarragon, snipped

Directions:

Heat the sausage in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat for 5 minutes. Remove the sausage and heat the oil in the same pan. Cook the onion in the oil for about 5 minutes. Coat the slow cooker with cooking spray and add the sausage, onion, potatoes, thyme and pepper. Cover with the chicken broth. Cover and cook on low for 5 to 6 hours. Add the peppers and top with cheese. Turn the slow cooker to high, cover and cook for 15 more minutes. Sprinkle with tarragon and serve.

Famous Quotes

Love is like a friendship caught on fire. In the beginning a flame, very pretty, often hot and fierce, but still only light and flickering. As love grows older, our hearts mature and our love becomes as coals, deep-burning and unquenchable.
