Asparagus Bacon Hash
This meal is a one pan kind of dish, which makes it perfect for a simple breakfast, brunch, or dinner. It’s a fairly well rounded dish, with vegetables, carbs, and meat. Because it’s also very versatile, you can easily add in or change around different vegetables or seasonings. I made it for brunch and topped it with an egg, but it would also go well with tofu, chicken, etc. I came across a similar dish on Smitten Kitchen and just changed a couple things around. This recipe is also naturally gluten free, and if made without bacon is also vegan.
ASPARAGUS BACON HASH
serves 4
- 6-8 pieces of bacon, sliced into small pieces
- 1 lb of Yukon gold potatoes, cut into 1/2 inch cubes
- 1 small yellow onion, diced small
- 1/2 lb asparagus, cut into 1 inch pieces
- extra virgin olive oil
- salt & pepper to taste
- Put bacon in a large pan over medium heat. Cook bacon until it’s crispy and dark in color. Remove bacon from the pan and drain on a paper towel. Leave the heat on and the bacon renderings in the pan. Add 1 tablespoon of olive oil; if you skipped the bacon add 2 tablespoons of olive oil.
- Add the potatoes to the pan and season with salt and pepper. Let them sit for a couple minutes, to brown underneath. Flip them, then let them brown again for a couple minutes.
- When the potatoes are about 3/4 as crispy and browned as you want them, add in the onion.
- Cook for another 5 minutes or so or until the onion is soft and had color. Add the asparagus and cover the pan. Cook for 5-8 minutes or until cooked.
- Take off the lid then add the bacon back into the pan. Add additional seasoning if needed.
Enjoy!

I’ve modified this recipe from Smitten Kitchen too! It’s really good with sweet potatoes if you’re like me and have to have sweet flavors in every meal.
