I developed this recipe combining potatoes and eggs over 30 years ago as a way to satisfy my family's hearty appetites. The green and red peppers really add a festive flair to the table.

Ingredients

  • 1 cup chopped onion, divided
  • 3 tablespoons canola oil
  • 3-1/2 cups frozen cubed hash brown potatoes
  • 1-1/2 teaspoons salt, divided
  • 1/2 teaspoon pepper, divided
