Breakfast Ingredients

Method

Cooking Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Home Fries

    Peel and dice the potatoes into small cubes. In a skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of butter over medium heat. Add the diced potatoes, sprinkle with salt and black pepper, and cook until golden brown and crispy, about 15-20 minutes, stirring occasionally.

  2. 2

    Cook the Bacon or Sausage

    In a separate skillet, cook the bacon or sausage over medium heat until crispy and cooked through. Remove and let drain on paper towels.

  3. 3

    Scramble the Eggs

    In a bowl, whisk the eggs with a pinch of salt and black pepper. In the same skillet used for bacon or sausage, add 1 tablespoon of butter and let it melt over medium heat. Pour in the eggs and stir gently until they are cooked through but still soft.

  4. 4

    Toast the Bread

    While the eggs are cooking, toast the slices of white or wheat bread until golden brown.

  5. 5

    Assemble the Breakfast

    On a plate, serve the scrambled eggs, home fries, bacon or sausage, and toast. Enjoy!
