Make brunch at home with this Vegan Chickpea Potato Breakfast Hash - complete with crispy potatoes, chickpeas, bell peppers and avocado.
I am having a serious love affair...with my cast iron skillet, that is. It is a one stop shop for meals - brown, roast, saute. It can do it all. And I love the char it gives all of my meals.

This breakfast hash is one of my favorites to make in my cast iron. Your veggies get a nice brown crust, and everything gets served up in one pan.
How to make Vegan Chickpea Potato Breakfast Hash
To cut down on cooking time, you will want to give your potatoes a quick boil before adding them to the skillet.
Once your potatoes and veggies are browned, add in the chickpeas and give it all a toss. Top off with fresh cilantro, jalapeno slices and lots of avocado. Serve with your favorite salsa, or ever my Vegan Jalapeno Cream Sauce.

- 1 lb potatoes diced in small cubes
- 2 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- ½ teaspoon cumin
- ½ teaspoon paprika
- salt & pepper to taste
- 3 cloves garlic peeled and diced
- 1 bell pepper diced

I made this for breakfast and It tasted so good!!! I added vegan gravy over it and it was amazing!
Rene
Ummmmm...vegan gravy on this?!? Sounds amazing! So glad you liked it!

Followed the recipe the teeth and it was absolutely delicious. The only criticism I could find would be boiling or cooking the chickpeas on their own for a bit to soften them a bit more, but that's my preference.
Such a simple recipe, easy to variate, I'm sure - thank you!
Rene
Yay! So glad you liked it!

Love this wholesome recipe! Added added dried cumin and dried cilantro powder, a hint of turmeric. Thank you. Paired the lid vegan vegan tofu scramble.
Rene
Yum, those all sound like perfect additions! So glad you liked it!

This was fabulous and I too will be post a photo on IG. I think I would make it again with my own cooked chickpeas as I like them a bit softer than the canned chickpeas. I agree that the lime squeeze was a good addition. I also made a quick sauce using Trader Joe’s salsa verde mixed with a little vegan cream cheese....
Kelsie
This is such a fun and unique breakfast idea! My family loved it.
Rene
Awesome! Glad it was a hit!
