Breakfast Scramble

This time of year I always seem to have extra tomatoes and peppers to use. This was a Sunday morning breakfast that got rid of a few of them. Make sure to get hash browns that do not have added salt or substitute fresh potatoes. If you are watching your cholesterol a product like Egg Beaters works well for this and adds about 50 mg of sodium per serving.

1 T Olive Oil
1/4 c Onion,Finely Chopped
1/4 c Red Bell Peppers,Finely Chopped
1/2 c Frozen Hash brown Potatoes
3 Eggs,Or 3/4 Cup Egg Substitute

Sauté onion and pepper in oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add hash browns and allow to cook until potatoes are softened and beginning to brown, stirring occasionally. Break eggs into a bowl and whisk until well blender. Pour over vegetables and continue to cook until eggs are set, about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
