We've seen some really nice posts showcasing the Hatch Chilies so thought it may be fun to do a twist on breakfast utilizing them. Boy am I glad I did!! Hey Brian (

) might enjoy this post. I know he does breakfast regularly and this could easily be done on the patio griddle.
Start out by cutting up a big tater for home fries. Into a skillet with oil, kosher salt, and black pepper.
Got the nuclear burner running pretty hot so this does not take long.
While the taters are cooking I cut up my last Hatch chili, some onion, and a nice pile of smoked ham.
Taters done and onto a plate to drain. Not quite up to par with what David does with taters but these were perfect.
Put the onions and peppers into an electric skillet with a nice dollop of fake butter.
Sweat the veggies down for a couple minutes and add the ham. It's already cooked so all you're wanting to do is heat it up, which it'll do as the eggs are cooking...so hang in there for a minute
Crack 4 eggs into the melee.
Mix all that up and make a huge mess. Sorry but there's just no way to take a nice looking pic of scrambled eggs
Time to get my beloved cheddar cream sauce going.
Plate the eggs and home fries.
Top the eggs with the cheddar cream sauce, add tortilla chips and fresh guac. Out to the patio for breakfast before the gates to Dante's Inferno open back up.
Y'all know who this one is for
Believe it or not, this is my first successful attempt at home fries. They never came out right and I figured out why this morning: not using enough oil in the skillet. For as long as I can remember, home fries have been a huge favorite for breakfast and the only time I got them was when we went out....which is very rare. Now that I know my mistakes from the past, we will be having these a LOT, especially being that they only take a few minutes to make. So, the main course was outstanding. I just love the flavor of the Hatch peppers and this was no exception. Add the lightly smoked ham and the cheese sauce and it was a winner. All in all a successful Sunday morning meal served hot and fresh as soon as Tracy got home from church. She was happy....right up until she discovered that I hadn't done my Sunday morning chores while she was at church This did help me to redeem myself though so I'll take that.
Oh well, y'all enjoy the rest of your weekend and I'll see everybody soon. You've been warned!!
