Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 8 large eggs
- 1 tablespoon milk
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 6 slices bacon
- 6 links breakfast sausage
- 3 medium potatoes
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 medium bell peppers
- 1 medium onion
- 2 cloves garlic
- 0.5 cup shredded cheese (optional)
Instructions
Peel and dice the potatoes into small cubes, about 1/2-inch in size. Dice the bell peppers and onion, and mince the garlic. Set aside.
Crack the eggs into a mixing bowl, add the milk, salt, and black pepper, and whisk until fully combined. Set aside.
In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the bacon slices until crispy, about 5-7 minutes. Remove the bacon from the pan and place on a paper towel-lined plate. Once cooled, crumble the bacon into small pieces.
In the same skillet, add the sausage links and cook for 8-10 minutes, turning occasionally, until browned and cooked through. Remove the sausage and slice into bite-sized pieces.
Remove the excess grease from the skillet, leaving about 1 tablespoon, and add 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Over medium heat, add the diced potatoes and cook for about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they begin to brown and soften.
Add the diced bell peppers, onion, and minced garlic to the skillet with the potatoes. Cook for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables are tender and slightly caramelized.
Push the cooked vegetables to one side of the skillet and pour in the egg mixture. Cook the eggs, stirring gently, until softly scrambled and cooked through. Make sure to combine the eggs with the vegetables as they cook.
Once the eggs are cooked, add the crumbled bacon, sliced sausage, and shredded cheese (if using) to the skillet. Stir everything together to combine and heat through, about 2 minutes.
Serve hot and enjoy your hearty breakfast skillet!
