Ingredients
Scale
- 2 medium russet potatoes, diced
- 4 slices of bacon, chopped
- 2 sausages, crumbled
- 1 bell pepper, diced
- 1 small onion, chopped
- 2 cups spinach leaves
- 4 large eggs
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Cook the Meats: Heat olive oil in a large cast-iron skillet over medium heat. Add chopped bacon and cook until crispy. Remove and set aside. In the same skillet, add sausage crumbles and cook until browned. Set aside with the bacon.
- Sauté Vegetables: Toss in diced bell pepper and onion. Sauté until softened, about 3-4 minutes. Add spinach and stir until wilted. Remove the veggies from the skillet and set aside.
- Prepare Potatoes: In the same skillet, add the diced potatoes. Season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until golden and tender, about 10 minutes.
- Combine Ingredients: Return cooked bacon, sausage, and vegetables to the skillet. Mix everything well.
- Add Eggs: Create small wells in the mixture and crack an egg into each. Cover the skillet and cook until the eggs reach your desired doneness (3-5 minutes for runny yolks).
- Top with Cheese: Sprinkle shredded cheddar cheese over the skillet. Cover again until the cheese melts, about 1-2 minutes.
- Serve: Garnish with fresh herbs if desired and serve hot.
Notes
- Use Pre-Cooked Potatoes for Faster Prep: If you’re short on time, pre-boil or use leftover roasted potatoes to speed up the cooking process. Just crisp them up in the skillet before adding the other ingredients.
- Customize the Ingredients: This recipe is incredibly versatile! Swap bacon and sausage for plant-based alternatives or omit them for a vegetarian version. Add your favorite vegetables like mushrooms or zucchini for extra flavor and nutrients.
- Adjust Egg Cooking Time: Keep an eye on the eggs as they cook! Cover the skillet for runny yolks, and let them cook a bit longer for firmer eggs. This ensures they’re perfectly done to your liking.
