Hello Friends!
I don’t know about you…but this summer has been way too much fun! This weekend, I attended the Reggae and Roses event at Fuller Gardens in North Hampton, New Hampshire. The gardens were spectacular & the music was fun! (Reggae makes me happy) 🙂 A glass of rosé, a gorgeous crudité platter, and a venue that overlooked the ocean made for a lovely evening. I won the tickets from Seacoast Lately, a super fun blog/newsletter that shares upcoming events for those traveling to the Maine and New Hampshire coast! I enjoyed the event with my niece, Gretchen–a great opportunity to catch up with one another. Check out this pink hydrangea at the Fuller Gardens…absolutely beautiful!
We have had many guests this summer visiting our little Maine cottage and one of my favorite breakfast dishes for a crowd is this one pan hashbrown and egg dish. Like many of my recipes, you can really make this your own by adding different veggies, seasonings, herbs and breakfast meats.I often add uncured chicken bacon (al fresco brand) or breakfast sausages (without FODMAP ingredients), tomatoes, bell pepper, sometimes a little shredded cheddar, avocado and cilantro. For this recipe, I also added a little taco seasoning, without onion and garlic, of course! Just keep avocado to 1/8 of the avocado per serving for the low FODMAP elimination diet.
Hope you enjoy this recipe as much as we do!
Ingredients
- Serves 6
- 2 teaspoons oil (grapeseed, canola, safflower)
- 6 cups shredded potato (I used frozen without any onion or garlic)
- 6 pre-cooked sausage links or patties or pre-cooked bacon strips--without FODMAP ingredients-- tear or cut bacon into bite size pieces.
- 6 large eggs
- 8 cherry tomatoes, halved
- 1/2 yellow bell pepper, deseeded and sliced
- 1/2 teaspoon taco seasoning ( I used FODY brand)
- 1/4 cup shredded cheddar cheese, optional
- 1/2 avocado, sliced into bite size pieces
- 2 tablespoons, fresh chopped cilantro or parsley, optional
- 1-2 green scallions/spring onion(s), green part only, sliced
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
- On rimmed baking sheet, drizzle oil over bottom.
- Add potatoes and if using frozen sausage links, add in now. Bake for 20-25 minutes, stirring once or twice during cooking time, until hash browns are lightly browned (and sausages are warmed through).
- Remove baking sheet from oven.
- Crack each egg individually into small dish and place carefully over potatoes.
- Scatter tomatoes and bell pepper over potatoes.
- If using pre-cooked bacon, add in now.
- Season top of eggs with taco seasoning.
- Place baking sheet back into oven for 5-10 minute or until eggs are set.
- Remove from oven and garnish dish with cilantro or parsley (if desired), avocado and green onion.

I think you may mean in line 2 of instructions: On rimmed baking sheet, lightly drizzle oil…

Yup, you are right. Thanks Carol!

Do you have recommendations for sausage that’s low FODMAP from the grocery store in the U.S.? I would love to eat another form of meat in the mornings, but haven’t found anything that might work. Thanks!

I like the applegate sage breakfast sausage. Info here: http://applegate.com/products/natural-chicken-and-sage-breakfast-sausage–2.

Hi Kate,
Do you have any suggestions for a non-meat sausage substitute that would be FODMAP friendly?
Thank you!

Most of the “non-meat” sausage has some FODMAPs. I wonder if you flavor up some Quorn crumbles (avoid any products w/ onion and garlic) to make a sausage flavor-adding some sage and garlic infused oil for instance?
Amanda
I didn’t realize applegate made sausage that is fodmap safe. That’s awesome! I love their products. I’m going to try to find these at my local grocery store.
I’ve been in the fodmap diet for four weeks and have seen great improvements. However, my doctor wants me to continue for another two months. This seems very restrictive to me. It limits my ability to eat out socially with friends and I’m afraid that I will have less tolerance when I reintroduce some high fodmap foods. Any suggestions?

Silk has come out with almond milk yogurt. It’s delicious! Would you be able to tell me if it’s FODMAP safe? The ingredients appear low in fodmaps. Here are the ingredients:Almondmilk (Filtered Water, Almonds), Cane Sugar, Contains 2% or less of: Pectin, Calcium Citrate, Citric Acid, Natural Flavor, Live and Active Cultures, Vanilla Beans, Vitamin D2.

Hi Amanda, the ingredients look okay to me. Pectin is not a FODMAP but can cause gas–just note this–if you find it bothers you. We won’t know the actual FODMAP content w/o actually testing the product–but it seems worth a try!
Amanda
Thank you! It has been a go-to snack for me and it’s so yummy. I’ve also tried Kite Hill’s almond yogurt, which is also very tasty and doesn’t have any pectin. The ingredients are as follows:Almond Milk (Water, Almonds), Cane Sugar, Organic Tapioca Starch, Natural Flavor, Locust Bean Gum, Citric Acid, Vanilla Bean, Xanthan Gum, Agar, Live Active Cultures: S.Thermophilus, L.Bulgaricus, L.Acidophilus and Bifidobacteria.
