Camping Breakfast Scramble

Ahhhh, summer.  I love ya.  I love the longer days, the warmer weather & the frequent opportunities to go camping!  When you’re in the mountains there’s nothing like a good breakfast (like this Camping Breakfast Scramble) to get the day rolling.  In my opinion, “camp food” needs to be:

  • Hot
  • Easy
  • Filling

This breakfast fits all 3 requirements…and it’s so tasty that you might even consider making it at home!  So, fire up your Coleman (or stovetop) & enjoy!

Serves 2-3

Ingredients

  • 4 chorizo sausage links, sliced
  • 1 baker potato, diced
  • 6 eggs
  • Olive oil
  • Salt & Pepper
Heat olive oil in sauté pan.  Add chorizo & cook until browned.  Leaving as much fat as possible in pan, carefully remove chorizo & set aside.
 
Drain potatoes (see NOTES below) & add to pan (if needed, add more olive oil).  Cook until potatoes are browned & softened.
 
Add chorizo back to pan.  Crack eggs on top of chorizo-potato mixture.  While eggs cook, mix them into the mixture to “scramble” them.  Cook until eggs are done.
 
Add salt & pepper to taste.  Enjoy!
 
NOTES: 
  • To making camp cooking easier, I prep all ingredients at home.  That way I can just dump ’em in!
  • To keep cut potatoes from turning brown before I’m ready to use them, put them into a tupperware container & add enough water to submerge them.  They’ll stay fresh for several days.
