Easy Vegan Hash is a hearty, colorful breakfast or brunch made with crispy potatoes, sautéed vegetables, and plant-based protein. This one-pan meal is simple, flavorful, and completely dairy- and egg-free, perfect for vegans or anyone craving a wholesome, vegetable-forward start to the day.

Ingredients

  • Potatoes (Yukon gold or russet), diced
  • Olive oil or avocado oil
  • Onion, chopped
  • Bell peppers (any color), diced
  • Garlic, minced
  • Mushrooms, sliced
  • Cherry tomatoes, halved (optional)
  • Spinach or kale, chopped
  • Salt and pepper
  • Smoked paprika or chili powder (optional)
  • Nutritional yeast (optional, for cheesy flavor)
  • Optional Add-ins: cooked lentils, black beans, vegan sausage, or tofu crumbles

Instructions

  1. Prepare the potatoes: Wash and dice into small cubes (½ inch).
  2. Par-cook potatoes: Boil in salted water for 5 minutes, then drain.
  3. Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat with olive oil.
  4. Cook potatoes for 10–12 minutes, stirring occasionally, until golden and crispy.
  5. Add onion, bell peppers, mushrooms, and garlic. Sauté 5–7 minutes until softened and lightly caramelized.
  6. Season with salt, pepper, smoked paprika, and nutritional yeast if using.
  7. Add spinach or kale and cook until wilted. Stir in beans, tofu, or vegan sausage if desired.
  8. Taste, adjust seasoning, and serve warm with avocado slices or hot sauce.

Notes

  • Par-cooking potatoes ensures they crisp perfectly in the skillet.
  • Use a cast-iron skillet for the best texture.
  • Cook in batches if the pan feels crowded—crowding traps steam and softens potatoes.
  • Add a sprinkle of vegan cheese at the end for melty, savory flavor.
  • Pairs wonderfully with avocado toast or fruit salad.
