Savory Breakfast Galette

Try something new for breakfast… savory breakfast galette.

I have those nights every once in a while where sleep just doesn’t want to come. I had one of those nights the other night.

 I laid in bed thinking of my blog and what recipes I should put on next. That is when I thought of doing a savory galette. It seems like my best ideas hit me when I am not able to sleep at night.

I made this for a late breakfast on Sunday morning. I wanted the dish to be simple. The crust and the hash browns were the stars of the show, but to this I added some onion, green pepper, an egg, some ham, and I was planning on mixing some cheddar cheese into the whole mixture but I forgot to do that so I added it at the end.

This is one of those recipes that you switch out things that you don’t like and add things that you would like. The next time I make this I will add more meat to it and maybe top it with another egg, but I definitely will mix the cheese in with the hash browns.
