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!

Steak & Egg Skillet Hash

Breakfast for dinner is always a welcome sight in the SFFS house. I happened to be short of groceries the other day and when that happens I almost always will return to my old stand by.....breakfast! But the nice thing about this is, it can be for breakfast OR dinner. And since I'm not much of a breakfast for breakfast kinda girl and I knew I wanted to make this, then dinner it was! Whew...that took a lot of words to tell you that this was a fast, easy and delicious meal. You should try it.

Steak & Eggs Skillet Hash



2 cups Southern Style Hash Browns ~ slightly thawed
1 - 2 10-ounce sirloin steaks (can use leftover steak)
