1 small onion, chopped
1/2 green pepper, chopped
6 button mushrooms, sliced
salt and pepper
5 thin slices of deli ham, chopped
2 Tbs butter

In a small skillet heat the olive oil, over medium heat. Add onion, peppers and mushrooms, and cook until vegetables are tender. Season with salt and pepper and cook 1 minute longer. Add the ham and cook until slightly browned.

In a large skillet heat the butter over medium low heat. Add the hash browns and cook until golden brown and crispy, about 5-6 minutes. Flip the hash browns and cook on other side until golden, about 5 minutes. Top with sauteed vegetables and ham, sprinkle with cheese and cover. Turn heat off and let sit until cheese melts.
