Ingredients

  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 8 small red potatoes diced
  • salt & pepper to taste
  • 8 eggs
  • 1 pound breakfast sausage
  • 1 green pepper
  • ½ small onion diced
  • 1.5 cups shredded cheddar cheese

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Toss potatoes with a little olive oil and seasoning with salt and pepper. Transfer to a rimmed baking sheet. Cook for 15-20 minutes or until browned slightly and fork tender. When cooked, remove from oven and transfer to desired number of bowls.
  • Heat a medium skillet over med-high heat. Add onions and green peppers in a single layer and cook until softened. Remove ingredients and divide into bowls.
  • Cook breakfast sausage, breaking into bite size pieces as it cooked. When cooked, remove and add into the bowls with the potatoes and vegetables, dividing equally.
  • In a medium bowl, whisk eggs until well blended. Cook until just set. Remove and add to bowls.
  • Sprinkle cheddar cheese over the top of each portion.
  • Cool, cover and place in the fridge or label and freeze for later.

Notes

  • To reheat from refrigerated, microwave for 30-60 seconds. 
  • To reheat from frozen, defrost for 1-2 minutes, then heat in the microwave for 30 seconds or until heated through.
  • There are many possibilities with these breakfast bowls! You can use ham, turkey sausage or bacon, mozzarella or pepper jack cheese. 
  • Want a southwestern flair? Try adding some salsa and diced avocado just before serving. 
  • Save time by using pre-made hash brown potatoes from the refrigerator or freezer section. Look for "potatoes" as the only ingredient on the label.
