Instructions
Heat 1 tablespoon oil in large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add bratwurst and cook 8 to 10 minutes or until browned and cooked through, turning occasionally. Transfer to cutting board and let rest 5 minutes, then cut into 1/4-inch rounds.
Add hash browns to same skillet in even layer. Cook over medium-high heat 8 to 10 minutes or until heated through and starting to turn golden brown, stirring occasionally (add a bit more oil if pan looks dry).
Stir in bell peppers and onion and cook 5 to 7 minutes or until peppers are tender-crisp, stirring occasionally. Remove from heat and transfer mixture to plate.
While vegetables cook, whisk together eggs, milk, garlic powder, paprika, salt and pepper in medium bowl.
Wipe out pan and let cool 2 minutes. Then, return to medium-low heat and add remaining 1 teaspoon oil to skillet. Pour in egg mixture and cook, stirring gently, until eggs are just set.
Add cheese, sliced brats and vegetable mixture to skillet and fold until everything is well combined. Garnish with green onions, if desired. Serve immediately, with mustard, if desired.
