1 (32 ounce) bag frozen hash brown potatoes (diced, not shredded) |
1/4 cup butter (divided) |
12 large eggs |
3 cups sharp cheddar cheese, shredded |
salt |
pepper (fresh ground is best) |
Directions:
1. In a meduim fry pan, heat 1 T butter over medium heat and add ham. Season with a little salt and pepper. Saute until ham is lightly browned. Turn down heat and keep warm for later.
2. In a large fry pan, heat remaining 3T of butter over high heat. Add diced onion and saute for 2-3 minutes. Add potatoes and continue to saute until potatoes are browned and cooked, turning often. Add salt and pepper to taste. Add the ham to the potatoes and turn to combine.
