How Do you prepare this Easy Camping Breakfast?
- Add water to hashbrowns per box instructions.
- Heat oil in a skillet over a camp stove.
- Add onions, green peppers, and sausage. Saute until veggies are translucent.
- Add hydrated hashbrowns and let cook for 5 minutes, flipping occasionally.

Start by heating the oil in a cast-iron skillet. Add peppers, onions, and turkey sausage chunks. Cook until the peppers and onions are soft.
Once the hashbrowns have soaked up the water and are rehydrated, add them into the hot skillet. If you'd like them golden brown, add more oil to help the hashbrowns get crispier and golden brown. Cook for about 5 minutes, flipping the hashbrowns several times.
Next, add the eggs. Using a spatula, gently stir the eggs into the hashbrown mixture and cook through - about 2-3 minutes.
Once the eggs are cooked through go ahead and add the shredded cheese. Turn the heat off and cover the skillet with a lid or foil. This melts the cheese without overcooking the eggs.
Serve as soon as the cheese is melted!
Optional Add-Ins:
- Add vegetables like canned mushrooms, tomatoes, or green onions.
- Swap sausage for ham, bacon, or sausage crumbles.
