Carne Asada Hash is a savory and filling breakfast. This dish is the perfect way to use up peppers, tomatoes, and potatoes before they go bad.

It’s not easy for me to get Tex-Mex food up here in Oregon. Shocker right? So, slowly over the years I have figured out how to make my own Tex-Mex. Once I figured out how to make Carne Asada on a grill I found all kinds of uses for it. I tend to make a breakfast hash to use up fresh ingredients before they go bad like peppers, cilantro, and tomatoes.

Here’s a breakfast recipe I love, Carne Asada Hash. I hope you like it too!

This is an awesome recipe for using up ingredients before they go bad.
