Yield Serves 6

Number Of Ingredients 9

3 scallions, trimmed, sliced
1 (16-ounce) package frozen shredded hash brown potatoes, defrosted
12 ounces cooked breakfast sausages (about 16 sausage links), cut into ¾" pieces
¼ cup olive oil
1 teaspoon kosher salt, plus more to taste
½ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper, plus more to taste
3 (packed) cups baby spinach
6 large eggs
½ cup shredded cheddar (optional)

Steps:

  • Cut 12 (12x16") pieces of heavy-duty foil. Layer 2 pieces of foil on top of each other to create 6 stacks. Line top pieces of foil with parchment paper cut to the same size.
  • Toss scallions, potatoes, sausage, oil, salt, and pepper in a large bowl. Divide mixture among prepared packs, arranging in the center of each piece of parchment. Bring edges of foil together to enclose each pack, covering completely, then crimp to seal packs closed.
  • Prepare a campfire or grill for medium, indirect heat, preferably with hardwood or hardwood charcoal. Let coals burn until covered with ash and glowing red with no black remaining.
  • Place packs side by side directly onto hot coals or grill and cook, rotating with tongs occasionally, about 5 minutes. Carefully remove 1 pack from heat and check if ingredients are steaming hot. If necessary, return pack to coals and continue to cook, 5-10 minutes more.
  • Transfer packs with tongs to a flat surface and carefully open them (they will be full of hot steam). Top each pack with spinach, then crack 1 egg into the center of each and season with salt and pepper. Reseal, return to coals, and cook until egg whites are opaque but yolks are still runny, 4-5 minutes.
  • Carefully remove packs from coals, open, and sprinkle with cheddar, if using. Serve immediately.
  • Do Ahead
  • Packs can be assembled and chilled for up to 2 days or frozen for up to 1 month.
  • Cooks' Note
  • Packs can be prepared in an oven. Preheat to 450°F and place packs on rimmed baking sheets. Bake until steaming hot, about 15 minutes if packs were refrigerated and about 30 minutes if baking frozen packs (no need to defrost). Carefully open packs (they will be full of hot steam), top each pack with spinach, crack 1 egg into the center of each, season with salt and pepper, and reseal. Return to oven and cook until egg whites are opaque but yolks are still runny, 4-5 minutes more. Top with cheddar, if using. Serve immediately.

Slow-Cooker Breakfast Sausage Casserole image

If you love an all-American breakfast with hash browns, eggs, sausage and peppers, then this is the recipe for you! Besides being downright delicious, the cheesy casserole can cook overnight. Assemble all the ingredients in your slow cooker, set it on low and wake up to a hearty meal that's ready first thing in the morning for hungry houseguests.

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Time 8h15m

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

2 pounds breakfast sausage, casings removed, meat broken up
Nonstick cooking spray, for the slow cooker
One 30-ounce bag frozen shredded hash brown potatoes
1 red bell pepper, finely diced
1 orange bell pepper, finely diced
2 cups (8 ounces) shredded mild Cheddar
1 medium red onion, finely diced
2 cups (8 ounces) shredded whole-milk mozzarella
12 large eggs, lightly beaten
1 cup whole milk
1 teaspoon paprika
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 scallions, thinly sliced
Hot sauce and ketchup, for serving

Steps:

  • Cook the sausage in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat until browned and cooked through, 6 to 8 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, transfer the sausage to a bowl to cool slightly and discard any fat left behind in the skillet.
  • Coat the insert of a 6-quart slow cooker with cooking spray. Layer half of the hash brown potatoes with half the sausage. Toss the bell peppers with the Cheddar, red onion and 1 cup of the mozzarella. Layer half the mixture over the sausage, then repeat the layering with the remaining potatoes, sausage and vegetable-cheese mixture.
  • Whisk the eggs, milk, paprika, 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper in a large bowl, then pour over the casserole mixture. Sprinkle the top with the remaining 1 cup mozzarella, then cover and cook on low until the eggs are set and have become a custard, about 7 hours. Turn off the heat, uncover and let rest for about 10 minutes.
  • Sprinkle with sliced scallions and serve with hot sauce and ketchup.

Campfire Foil Pack Breakfast Burritos image

All it takes is a little bit of planning to add a touch of glamour to your campsite breakfast. The filling for these hearty burritos is cooked in clever foil packs over the fire. Pack all of the other fixings in your cooler and enjoy the first meal of the day in the great outdoors.

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Categories     main-dish

Time 1h35m

Yield 4 hearty burritos

Number Of Ingredients 8

12 ounces Yukon gold potatoes, thinly sliced (about 3 medium)
1 poblano pepper, stemmed, seeded and thinly sliced
2 tablespoon vegetable oil
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 pound fresh chorizo sausage, casings removed (about 4 links)
8 large eggs
Four 10-inch flour tortillas
Shredded Cheddar, hot sauce, salsa, sliced scallions and sour cream, for serving

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with nonstick foil.
  • Put the potatoes and pepper out on the prepared baking sheet. Drizzle the oil over the vegetables and toss along with 1 teaspoon of salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper. Spread the vegetables out in to a single layer on three-quarters of the baking sheet. Crumble the sausage on the remaining quarter of the baking sheet. Roast until the potatoes are fork tender and the sausage is cooked all the way through, about 25 minutes. Let cool completely. Pack into a large plastic re-sealable bag and refrigerate up to overnight. Pack in a cooler. (Make sure to pack all of the other ingredients and equipment too.)
  • Build a medium campfire (if there is a grate for cooking then go ahead and use it).
  • Make the foil packs: Cut eight 15-inch pieces of nonstick foil. Stack 2 pieces of foil, place your hand in the center and fold the sides up to create a shallow bowl. Repeat with the remaining pieces of foil so you have 4 bowls total. Put a quarter of the potato-sausage mixture in the center of each bowl. Crack the eggs into a quart-sized glass mason jar and shake well to scramble.
  • Divide the eggs evenly among the bowls. Fold the sides over the fillings to create a seal. Place the foil packs directly onto the coals of the fire, or on the grate above the fire, and cook, rotating with tongs every few minutes until the eggs are set, about 10 minutes. This could take more or less time depending on the strength of the fire, careful of steam you can open the packs to check while they cook. Remove from heat and let cool for 2 minutes so you can handle the foil.
  • Open each packs and flip the mixture out onto the middle of your tortillas and top with Cheddar, hot sauce, salsa, scallions and sour cream.
