Method

Eggs

  1. 1

    Prepare the Eggs

    In a bowl, crack the two eggs and whisk them together with salt and black pepper until well combined.

  2. 2

    Cook the Eggs

    Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Pour the whisked eggs into the skillet. Cook for 2-3 minutes until the edges start to set. Carefully flip the eggs or fold them if you prefer them scrambled, and cook for an additional minute. Remove from heat and set aside.

Breakfast Potatoes

  1. 3

    Prepare the Potatoes

    Peel and dice the potatoes into small cubes.

  2. 4

    Cook the Potatoes

    In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the diced potatoes, garlic powder, paprika, and salt. Cook for about 15-20 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the potatoes are golden and tender.

Vegetables & Meat

  1. 5

    Sauté the Vegetables and Ham

    In the same skillet used for the potatoes, reduce heat to medium and add diced ham, bell peppers, and caramelized onions. Sauté for about 5-7 minutes until the vegetables are tender and the ham is heated through.

  2. 6

    Prepare the Tomato

    While the vegetables and ham are cooking, dice the tomato and set aside.

Assembly

  1. 7

    Combine All Ingredients

    On a plate, layer the breakfast potatoes, followed by the sautéed ham and vegetables. Place the cooked eggs on top and sprinkle with cheddar cheese. Add the diced tomato on the side or on top of the dish for garnish.
