How to Make Ham and Potato Hash with Peppers

Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat for 1-2 minutes.
Add the chopped onion and cook until soft and translucent, about 4 minutes.
Toss in the diced bell peppers and sauté for about 5 minutes until tender.
Stir in the diced cooked potatoes and leftover ham, spreading them evenly.
Allow the hash to sit undisturbed for 5-7 minutes for a crispy bottom.
Stir again and let cook for an additional 5 minutes until hot and slightly crispy.
Season with salt and pepper. If desired, create wells and crack eggs into them.
Serve hot and enjoy!
