Paleo Cauliflower Hash with Eggs

Here's a quick and easy comfort breakfast you can make in 15 minutes or less. Cauliflower hash is WAY tastier than potato hash. And since cauliflower is a low-carb vegetable, it's far healthier and easier on your waistline. How do you like your eggs? I like them soft boiled like in the photo. Prepare your eggs any way you like them. Or you can fry them over-easy, sunny-side up, scramble, or poach. This recipe is extremely flexible. Serves 4, with 2 eggs each. [amd-zlrecipe-recipe:207]
