Eggs and Cheese

Bacon

Muffin

Breakfast Potatoes

Method

Prepare Breakfast Potatoes

  1. 1

    Cook Potatoes

    Dice the potatoes into small cubes. In a bowl, toss the diced potatoes with olive oil, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Preheat a skillet over medium heat and add the potato mixture. Cook for about 15-20 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the potatoes are golden brown and tender.

Cook Bacon

  1. 2

    Fry Bacon

    In a separate skillet, cook the applewood smoked bacon over medium heat until crispy, about 6-8 minutes. Once done, remove from the skillet and let it drain on paper towels.

Scramble Eggs

  1. 3

    Scramble Eggs

    In a bowl, whisk together the eggs, salt, and black pepper. In the same skillet used for the bacon (drained of excess fat), pour in the egg mixture. Cook over medium heat, stirring gently until the eggs are fully cooked and fluffy. Add the cheddar cheese and stir until melted.

Toast Muffins

  1. 4

    Toast English Muffins

    While the eggs are cooking, split the English muffins in half and toast them in a toaster or under a broiler until golden brown.

Assemble Sandwich

  1. 5

    Build Breakfast Sandwich

    On the bottom half of each toasted English muffin, place a portion of the scrambled eggs with cheese, followed by two slices of crispy bacon. Top with the other half of the muffin.
