Oven Skillet Spam & Eggs Hash





So you know those times when your hungry but you haven't gone grocery shopping and you really don't want to get up and drive to the store, so you do with what you have.  Well, in our house their is always at least a can of spam, potatoes, and eggs.  So last night I came up with a penny saving tasty dish, oven skillet spam and egg hash.  Yes, I even came up with the name ;)
  • 1 can of Spam, chopped into cubes
  • 4-5 medium potatoes, cubed into small hash size potatoes &  par-boiled
  • 1 Green bell pepper, chopped
  • 4-6 Eggs
  • 3-4 T. Canola Oil
  • salt & pepper
  • cheese (optional)

First thing you want to do is boil your little cubed potatoes for about 15 mins.  You want the potatoes just a little bit undercooked and not mushy or soft.  In the meantime heat up your skillet (make sure its one you can also put in the oven, handle and all) w/the oil and brown the spam and green bell peppers.  Set aside when ready.  When the potatoes are done, drain it and run it under cold water for a couple seconds.  Let it drain.  Turn the skillet with spam in it back on to a med-high heat and add your potatoes in.  Stir it all together with a wooden spoon. Let the potatoes brown a little in color.  Turn the stove off and turn your broiler setting on high. Take your egg one at a time cracking one in a bowl and pour each one without breaking the yolk, over the spam and potatoes, putting each egg yolk in different spots, salt & pepper the eggs.

 Put the skillet in the oven under the broiler for about 5-10 mins depending how you like your eggs.  If you like it a little runny or completely cooked, just check on it till its to your liking.  We didn't have any shredded cheese, so I just used the colby jack cheese slices we had and broke it up over the eggs afterwards and stuck it back in for about 45 seconds under the broiler to melt. 


This is one of those recipes that can be tweeked in so many ways, you could do smoked sausage, bacon, tomatoes, onions, etc.. Hope you enjoy it as much as I did :)
