The inspiration for this recipe came to me one morning when I was rummaging through my fridge, looking for something to eat for breakfast. I had some leftover zucchini and sweet potato from dinner the night before, and I thought, 'why not make a hash?' I added some red onion, sun-dried tomatoes, roasted red peppers, and fresh basil, and the result was a delicious and satisfying breakfast. I've been making this hash ever since, and it's become a favorite of mine and my family.
