• Make the hash: chop all vegetables; pierce potatoes with a fork and microwave on HIGH for 5 minutes; remove potatoes from microwave and cool 5 minutes or until cool enough to handle.

• Add olive oil to skillet you cooked the bacon in; then add potatoes.
• Cook potatoes until brown and crisp, 2 minutes on each side.
• Make the salsa: combine the salsa ingredients in a small bowl; set aside.

• Cook until vegetables are just tender and potatoes are cooked through, 3-5 minutes longer.
• Turn off heat and add bacon back to pan; combine bacon with the vegetables then add the cheese to pan to evenly cover the mixture.
• Tent the skillet with foil to gently melt the cheese over vegetables and potatoes and to retain heat.
• Fry eggs: heat a nonstick griddle pan over medium heat.
• Add 1 tablespoon butter to warm pan and let it melt.
• Crack eggs onto griddle and fry to desired doneness (eggs may be cooked over easy or scrambled as well, as you like).

• Place 2 tablespoons butter in a small cup with the clove of garlic and cayenne pepper; melt in microwave 30 seconds.

GREEK COWBOY HASH AND EGGS

Steps:

• Heat 2 tablespoons olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Cook the potatoes in the heated oil until they begin to soften, about 5 minutes. Add the onion and garlic; continue cooking until the onions sweat and begin to caramelize. Season with chipotle chile powder, cumin, coriander, salt, and pepper; stir. Transfer to a bowl and cover with a plate to retain the heat.
• Pour 2 tablespoons olive oil into the skillet and return to medium heat. Crack the eggs into the heated oil and cook until they begin to turn opaque; flip and continue cooking until no clear white remains. (Don't overcook the eggs -- the best part of this meal is the smoothness that the yolk adds to the mix). Place the cooked eggs atop the potato mixture. Top with cilantro, feta cheese, and avocado to serve.
