Snow Day Hash

It's snowing in Asheville!  We have about 8 inches right now, but it's still coming down!


When it's cold outside and you've been playing in the snow all day, you can't beat a hot, filling meal.  For dinner tonight, I made a hash using some pantry and fridge staples.  Here's the recipe, which is enough for two hungry people plus leftovers:


Ingredients:
3 russet potatoes
3 sweet potatoes
1/2 lb. sausage
1 onion
1 bell pepper (mine was green, but the color doesn't really matter)
1 cup corn
4 eggs
~1/4 cup olive oil (I didn't measure)
Spices: salt, black pepper, crushed red pepper, chili powder, Italian seasoning, garlic powder

Directions:
Peel and cube the russet potatoes and sweet potatoes.  Toss them in olive oil and microwave them on high for about ten minutes, or until fork tender.  Meanwhile, brown the sausage in your skillet.  Drain off any excessive fat, leaving about a tablespoon or so.  Chop up the onion and bell pepper and add them to your sausage.  Add the corn.  Cook everything on medium heat until the onions are transparent and you're starting to get some nice brown color on your vegetables.  When the potatoes finish in the microwave, add your spices to them (a good, hearty shake of each), and toss them around to make sure they're all evenly coated with spices.  Add them to the skillet with your sausage and vegetables.  Then cook your eggs however you prefer (I like them over medium).  Serve the eggs over your hash with another sprinkle of salt and pepper.
