I made this today but used 1/2 sweet potato and 1/2 white potato
It was delicious. I was going to add a can of drained and diced mild chilies but my son would never touch it if he saw green in it.

I love Spam. It was a staple in our house. I usually dice up two 1/4 in. slices, get them golden brown, then add my scrambled eggs to the party.
Recently I’ve been doing something a little different. I took a small handful of frozen shoestring fries that I got from Wally-World; they’re $1 for 32 oz.; real cheap (frozen fries are pre-seasoned with shortening then flash fried and frozen). Put them in the microwave for a few seconds just to make them workable. I dice them and then tossed them with garlic powder, onion powder, seasoned salt and pepper: Then tossed them in the pan with a little Crisco and my Spam; then the eggs. A couple of shots of the “Creole Torpedo” (Frank’s Louisiana Hot Sauce), and I’m a happy boy. God bless.

I have a can of low sodium SPAM in my pantry, and have been wondering what the perfect recipe would be. This sounds like the winner and I can’t wait to try it out! Eggs will be involved, per others’ suggestions.

Isn’t that silly of Facebook? I saw it mentioned and wasn’t sure about the details. I thinkthe spam idea is clever. 🙂

We make a similar recipe called Campfire Hash and it calls for diced potatoes, diced Spam or Treet Meat, diced onions, can of whole kernel corn, and can of diced green chilies. Served with Mexican corn bread and macaroni & cheese and it is comfort food to the max!

You might have started a SPAM resurgence with the post of this recipe! Looks yummy and I like the idea of a sunny side egg right on top. I haven’t had SPAM in years but may have to add that to the grocery list for a trip back in time.

In reply to khallsKurt. Oh, yes! You could add a poached or sunny side up egg right on top. :)
