Ingredients
Scale
- 4 medium russet potatoes, diced
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 6 slices bacon, chopped
- 1 bell pepper, diced (any color)
- 1 small onion, diced
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 4 large eggs
- 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
Feel free to substitute bell pepper with whatever veggies you have on hand. Mushrooms or zucchini work wonderfully too!
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 375°F.
- In a large oven-safe skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced potatoes, salt, and pepper. Cook until the potatoes are golden brown and crispy, about 10-12 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- While the potatoes cook, in a separate pan, fry the chopped bacon until crispy. Remove from the pan and set aside, leaving the bacon fat.
- In the same skillet as the potatoes, add the diced bell pepper and onion. Cook until the vegetables are soft, around 5 minutes.
- Return the crispy bacon to the skillet and stir everything together.
- Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese evenly over the top.
- Make four small wells in the potato mixture and crack an egg into each well.
- Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake until the eggs are set to your liking, approximately 8-10 minutes.
- Once done, remove from the oven and sprinkle with fresh parsley before serving.
And there you go! A brunch that’s both hearty and satisfying, perfect for savoring with family over laughter and stories—just like those evenings in my childhood home.
