This Keto Cabbage and Sausage Hash is an incredibly hearty low-carb, high-protein breakfast! At under 5 net carbs per serving, this dish takes similar to a traditional breakfast hash without the carbs!

My cousin, Katie, has been following a keto diet. She text me recently and said if she say another egg she thought she would die. Girlfriend, I’m with ya! I have hit those roadblocks where I just cannot eat any more eggs or cheese.

Usually, the only way to shake it is to try them a new and different way. This very easy Keto Sausage and Cabbage Breakfast Hash was just what I needed to get out of my funk with eggs. This resembles a traditional potato hash surprisingly well!

A traditional breakfast hash typically features potatoes, onions, and peppers all fried until crispy and then topped with fried eggs.

However, this cabbage and smoked sausage hash features a bed of smoked sausage and fried cabbage topped with eggs. It is hearty, inexpensive and easy! This is the perfect keto breakfast, or even to serve as an easy dinner!

How to Make Fried Cabbage and Sausage Hash

This is a quick keto breakfast recipe that you can have on the table in no time! Here’s a look at how this sausage and cabbage breakfast hash is made:

Heat an oiled 12-inch skillet over medium heat.
Brown the sliced smoked sausage until lightly crisp. Remove sausage from skillet and set aside.
Add butter, garlic, chopped cabbage, and spices and stir well. Fry cabbage to your desired tenderness.
When the cabbage reaches your desired texture, add the cooked sausage and stir until heated through.
In another skillet, cook the eggs the way you prefer.
Top the Keto sausage hash with the egg. Serve immediately.

What Type of Sausage Should I Use?

Any kind you’d like! Any cooked, smoked sausage will work.

Tips for Making a Keto Breakfast Hash

If you would like more crunch, cook the cabbage for about 3-4 minutes. If you like your cabbage very tender, it will need to cook closer to 10 minutes.
I prefer using my cast iron skillet to make this cabbage and sausage hash. It distributes heat evenly, so I rarely burn anything when I use it.
This keto breakfast hash is best enjoyed right away. However, leftovers can be reheated on the stovetop. I recommend cooking the eggs fresh each time you reheat the cabbage hash mixture.
