Crispy Bacon and Golden Cauliflower Breakfast Hash

1. Cook Bacon

Start by cooking the bacon in a large skillet over medium heat until it’s crispy, which should take about 8 minutes. The bacon fat that renders out will flavor the entire hash and add a delightful crispiness. Once the bacon is done, transfer it to a paper towel-lined plate to drain and cool. Reserve the bacon grease in the skillet because we’ll use it to cook the veggies.

2. Chop Bacon

While the bacon cools, chop it into small pieces. Don’t worry about it cooling down completely; just make sure it’s manageable to handle and chop.

3. Cook Vegetables

Next, add the cauliflower florets, minced garlic, and diced onion to the skillet with the bacon grease. Sauté this mixture over medium heat for about 5 minutes. The vegetables will start to absorb the rich bacon flavor and begin to brown, which is exactly what we want.

4. Cook Eggs

Once the cauliflower is nicely browned, use a spoon to create four small wells in the mixture. Crack an egg into each well, and season with a pinch of pink salt and freshly ground black pepper. Cooking the eggs directly in the hash allows them to integrate beautifully with the flavors of the dish. Let the eggs cook until the whites are set but the yolks are still slightly runny, which should take about 3 minutes.

5. Serve

Finally, sprinkle the chopped bacon over the top of the hash, ensuring it’s evenly distributed. Serve the hash hot, with the eggs perfectly nestled in the golden cauliflower and bacon mixture. Enjoy the hearty, savory flavors of this delicious breakfast!
