Ingredients
- 1 (32 oz) bag frozen hash browns
- 1 lb precooked ham or bacon

- 1 1/2 cups grated medium cheddar cheese
- 12 eggs

Instructions
1. Start by greasing your crock pot. Then, layer half of the frozen hash browns, half of the chopped onion, half of the green pepper (if using), half of the ham or bacon, and half of the shredded cheese. Repeat the layers with the remaining ingredients.
2. In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, whole milk, salt, and pepper until well blended.
3. Carefully pour the egg mixture evenly over the layered ingredients in the crock pot.
4. Cover the crock pot with the lid and cook on low for 6-8 hours or on high for 3-4 hours, until the eggs are fully cooked and set.
5. Once the Mountain Man Crock Pot Breakfast is done, serve it warm straight from the slow cooker.
Notes
Choose high-quality ingredients: Opt for fresh, flavorful veggies, and use precooked meat like ham or bacon for maximum convenience.
Modify for dietary needs: Swap the meat for plant-based protein like tofu or mushrooms for a vegetarian version. Use dairy-free cheese or egg substitutes to make it vegan-friendly.
Get creative with mix-ins: Feel free to add other delicious ingredients like diced tomatoes, spinach, mushrooms, or even a sprinkle of spicy seasonings to customize the flavors.
