๐ŸฅกMeal Prep & Storage

Veggie Breakfast Hash stores better than most egg dishes because the potatoes and vegetables keep their texture well. Refrigerate leftovers in an airtight container for up to 3 days. If the hash includes eggs cooked on top, those are best added fresh each time โ€” reheat the hash base in a pan over medium heat for 5 minutes and top with a freshly fried egg. The potato-and-vegetable base can also be batch-cooked and frozen for up to 1 month.
