Say hello to the first ever breakfast hash on my site! I wanted to create an easy, veggie and protein-packed breakfast for you to kick off the new year and meal prep for a busy week or share with loved ones.
This sheet pan breakfast hash is loaded with colorful vegetables, perfectly spiced tender potatoes, sausage, and eggs that you roast up all on one pan. It couldn’t be easier to make, and is truly a full, nourishing meal baked right in your oven.
I included tons of yummy ways to serve it and make it your own — breakfast tacos, anyone? Get this on your breakfast menu ASAP and enjoy!
Ingredients in this sheet pan breakfast hash
We’re loading up your pan with plenty of veggies, your fav sausage, and cooking eggs your way. Here’s what you’ll need:
- Potatoes: you’ll add both a sweet potato and a couple of Yukon gold potatoes, because what’s breakfast without perfectly crispy potatoes?
- Vegetables: we’re also adding the rainbow with orange and red bell peppers, and red onion.
- Spices: season everything with salt, garlic powder, paprika, cumin, dried thyme, and pepper.
- Sausage: I like to use spicy Italian chicken sausage in this recipe.
- Cheese: a sprinkle of sharp cheddar cheese is optional, but highly recommended.
- Eggs: crack some eggs right onto the sheet pan to bake in the oven. Easy and a great source of protein!
Make this breakfast hash your own
There are plenty of ways to customize this sausage breakfast hash:
- For the veggies: feel free to use any vegetables you love! Mushrooms, brussels sprouts, and even cubed butternut squash would be delicious.
- For the sausage: spicy or mild chicken or pork sausage would all be delicious, but you could also add cubed ham.
- For the cheese: I love sharp cheddar cheese, but pepper jack or your favorite shredded cheese will all be delicious. You can also omit the cheese to keep it dairy-free!
Can I make it vegetarian?
Absolutely! Simply omit the sausage and enjoy the breakfast hash with the eggs and all of those delicious roasted vegetables.
Delicious ways to serve this breakfast hash
This sausage breakfast hash is delicious served:
- With a drizzle of hot sauce or your favorite salsa on top
- In tacos with scrambled eggs, and/or pinto beans, and green chile
- With a side of fruit, bacon, and toast (my no knead artisan bread would be perfect)
- With a yummy pastry like my new Cranberry Orange Muffins, or a piece of Espresso Yogurt Chocolate Chip Coffee Cake
Storing & meal prep tips
Store any leftover breakfast hash without the eggs in an airtight glass container for up to 3-4 days. Reheat on the stovetop or in the microwave, and cook your eggs separately.

Sheet Pan Sausage Breakfast Hash
Ingredients
- 1 medium sweet potato, cut into ½ inch cubes
- 2 medium yukon gold potatoes, cut into ½ inch cubes
- 1 large red bell pepper, cut into ½ inch chunks
- 1 large orange bell pepper, cut into chunks
- 1 red onion, halved and sliced
- 2 to 3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- ½ teaspoon cumin
- ½ teaspoon dried thyme
- Freshly ground black pepper
- 1 pound spicy or mild italian chicken (or pork) sausage in casing
- ¾ cup to 1 cup (3 to 4 ounces) shredded sharp cheddar cheese (optional, but delish)
- 4 to 6 large eggs (or as many as you’d like)
- Freshly ground salt and pepper, to taste
- To serve
- Hot sauce or salsa
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Prepare and bake veggies: Add sweet potatoes, potatoes, red bell pepper, orange bell pepper, and onion slices to the sheet pan. Drizzle olive oil over and then sprinkle with kosher salt, garlic powder, paprika, cumin, dried thyme, and freshly ground black pepper. Use clean hands to toss the veggies so they are well coated with the oil and spices. Spread into a single layer on the baking sheet. Bake for 20 minutes.
- Remove from the oven and use a spatula to flip the veggies, then add the sausage: Remove sausage from its casing and place in 1-inch pieces on the baking sheet. (This is an easier tactic than rolling into meatballs, and oftentimes I just ‘plop’ the sausage right out of the casing onto the sheet pan!) It's okay if some of the sausage covers the veggies but try to nestle it in open spots if you’re able to. Bake for 15 minutes.
- Remove from the oven again, sprinkle veggies with cheese, then crack 4 to 6 eggs (or as many as you’d like for serving) onto the sheet pan over the veggies and cheese (just not over the sausage) and sprinkle eggs with salt and pepper. Place back in the oven and bake an additional 7 to 10 minutes, depending how cooked you like your eggs. 7 to 8 minutes were perfect for mine! Dollop with hot sauce or salsa and serve immediately.

This recipe is a bit hit in my family. I made it for breakfast, lunch and dinner and everyone loved it. Great balance of carbs and protein. Love the combination of the spices. Ambitious Kitchen is no 1 source for the recipies for me.
Amazing! This really does work for any meal of the day 🙂
I can’t wait to try all your recipes. I cook daily 3 meals for 4 adults. On weekends I prep breakfast and lunch for my great grandson so I know he eats well on the job and save him some money. So breakfast and lunches ( not sandwiches 5 days a week). I’m always looking for easy to make when I’m doing this much but also with extra protein and no sugar or less sugar. Also need dessert recipes that are quick and simple for now. I’m soon going to be 77 so I am looking for light equipment to use even though I still make my own bread and buns and pastry the old fashioned way. Thanks I’m making the breakfast bite tomorrow morning and plan to take some over to my daughter also, Maggie.
Amazing! Sounds like you keep very busy – I hope these recipes help take the planning off your plate 🙂
This is SO GOOD!! I discovered this recipe a few weeks ago and we have made it every week- sometimes twice. It’s so simple, easy and delicious. I usually do three peppers and add a head of broccoli and use heaping measurements of the seasonings. My pan is mega crowded and while I normally miss the veggie crispness when I overfill my pan, I haven’t with this recipe! It’s good for breakfast, dinner, snacks, whatever! I don’t cook the eggs or cheese in the oven I always make those separately- makes leftovers and meal prep easier. The sausage “plop drop” from casing method/tip is 10/10. Try this you won’t be sad!
So happy to hear that! Perfect easy, savory breakfast 🙂
This is so easy and delicious! We not only make this for breakfast, but we love it for dinner as well. I double the hash to have for leftovers throughout the week and then make the eggs fresh. Definitely on repeat in our house!
Love that! Perfect for any meal really 🙂
I always post the same coment, but really – this is the only food blog where every single recipe I have tried is faultless, delicious, and something I’d make again. thanks for another winner for our dinners!
I’m so happy to hear that! This is definitely a new fav 🙂
Easy and so flavorful. A great breakfast on its own or to pair with a sweet treat. We will definitely be making again!
Absolutely! Glad you enjoyed 🙂
Loved this. I brought it for a brunch today. I can’t find italian sausage where I live so I made it without. Super yummy and super easy. I will be making it again.
Still delicious without it! Glad it was a hit 🙂
