From Virginia Wiedemann:  "This is my full meal healthier version of the hash browns 'all the way' that you can order at waffle houses. The eggs give it extra protein, and of course it uses low fat cheese. This is a good place to try soy cheese if you haven't done so yet."

1 cup thinly sliced onions
2 cups frozen hash browns
1 cup chopped green and/or red bell pepper
1/2 cup chopped fresh tomatoes
3/4 cup sliced mushrooms
1 Tbsp. canola or olive oil
1 tsp, canola or olive oil
1 cup shredded low fat cheddar cheese
1/2 cup finely chopped low fat ham
2 whole eggs and 3 egg whites, beaten
Salt and freshly ground pepper to taste

In a very large frying pan, sauté onions in 1 Tbsp. oil until transparent.  Add salt, pepper and hash browns and cook and stir over fairly high heat until brown.  Remove from pan.  Add 1 tsp. more of oil, mushrooms, and peppers to pan, and stir-fry until crisp-tender.  Add potato, onions and chopped ham to pan and mix all together. 

Turn heat to low and pour beaten eggs evenly over top.  Cover and cook over low heat until eggs are set.  Sprinkle chopped tomatoes and shredded cheese over top.  Serves two very hungry people, or more with salad and bread.
