Welcome!

Welcome to Simple Fare, Fairly Simple. This is a place for me to post recipes of all kinds...along with other miscellaneous fodder from my so-called life here in the south. Who knows what you will find here. Could be anything from my husband...known as IT Guy...to my kids and beautiful grandbabies that are growing up way too fast right before my eyes. But...mostly this will be a place for food. I hope you'll see something you like and if you decide to try something from the list...leave me a comment and let me know!

Sausage Breakfast Hash

Back in December, IT Guy and I had our 40th wedding anniversary. I know what you're thinking....how on EARTH can someone put up with the likes of me for that long. The struggle is real...but he's managed. Anyway...we went to Ashville, NC to the Biltmore for a couple of days, thanks to our kids who combined their efforts and gave us that nice gift. The hotel where we stayed had a breakfast buffet which IT Guy thoroughly enjoyed and I tolerated since I'm not a big breakfast eater. One thing that was served was a really good hash type dish. I told IT Guy that I was going to go home and recreate it and I just now got around to doing it. Now, I don't know how the hotel made theirs, but mine was delicious! Not only was it good but it was so easy to make! Of course, we had ours for dinner, but this is so simple to make that fixing it for a Saturday morning breakfast would be nooooo problem. We had some leftover so I threw a little in a flour tortilla with some cheese and salsa for IT Guy to take to work! Give it a try...I think you'll really enjoy it!
