Breakfast Smash!

Time for a simple Mom Invention breakfast!

What's more typical, albeit a tad boring, than a ham and potato dinner? Here's a great re-use-it recipe that gets rid of those meat and spud leftovers and provides a delicious flavor-and-protein breakfast meal for your hungry little one.

Hash Breakfast Smash!

What you'll need:


1 cup cooked ham, diced

1 cup cooked potatoes, diced or cut into small chunks

About 2 tbsp light olive oil

About 2 tbsp all-purpose flour

1-1/2 cups water

-Heat the oil in a skillet. Add the flour and stir frequently over medium heat until golden brown. Remove from heat to prevent burning.

-Add some vegetables if your little one likes them! Personally, I recommend a hearty sprinkling of onion, green peppers and mushrooms, but go with whatever your child considers meal-worthy. Cook the vegestables in the skillet until they are nice and soft.

-Return skillet to medium heat, and add the water, potatoes and ham. Let the mixture come to a boil, then decrease heat to a simmer and cover. Cook for ten minutes, stirring occasionally.

-Add salt to taste, let cool and serve!

If you want to make this one the night before, just add a bit of water (approximately a quarter cup) and mix it up before you toss it in the microwave. Enjoy!
