How to Make Hobo Breakfast Special

  1. In a large skillet over medium-high heat, brown 1 lb of breakfast sausage, breaking it up with a spoon.
  2. Remove the cooked sausage from the skillet and set aside; if desired, drain excess grease from the skillet.
  3. Add 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil to the skillet. Add 1 medium chopped onion and 8 oz sliced cremini mushrooms and cook until softened, about 5-7 minutes. Set aside in a separate bowl with the sausage.
  4. Add 2 cups of frozen hash browns to the skillet over medium-high heat and cook, stirring occasionally, until golden brown and crispy, about 8-10 minutes.
  5. Push the hash browns to one side of the skillet to create space. Pour in 6 large eggs and cook until mostly set, about 2-3 minutes.
  6. Add the cooked sausage and mushroom mixture to the skillet. Gently scramble everything together until the eggs are cooked to your liking.
  7. Sprinkle 1/2 cup of shredded cheddar cheese (or your favorite cheese) over the top.
  8. Cover the skillet with a lid for 1-2 minutes to allow the cheese to melt completely.
  9. Serve immediately and enjoy!
