Omelet/Scramble

Method

Omelet/Scramble

  1. 1

    Prepare the Eggs

    In a large bowl, crack 6 large eggs and whisk them together until fully blended. Add 1 tsp of salt and 1 tsp of black pepper to the eggs and mix well.

  2. 2

    Cook the Meats

    In a large skillet, heat 2 tbs of olive oil or butter over medium heat. Add 1 cup of bacon bits, 1 cup of diced ham, and 1 cup of cooked and crumbled sausage. Cook for about 5 minutes until heated through and slightly crispy.

  3. 3

    Combine Ingredients

    Pour the beaten eggs into the skillet with the cooked meats. Stir gently to combine and allow the eggs to set slightly.

  4. 4

    Add Cheese

    Sprinkle 1 cup of shredded Colby Jack cheese and 1 cup of shredded Cheddar cheese over the egg mixture. Cook for another 3-5 minutes until the cheese is melted and the eggs are fully cooked. Stir occasionally for a scramble, or let it set for an omelet.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Once cooked to your liking, remove from heat and serve hot.

Potatoes

  1. 6

    Prepare the Potatoes

    Rinse and dice the potatoes into small cubes. In a bowl, toss them with 2 tbs of olive oil, 1 tsp of garlic powder, 1 tsp of paprika, 1 tsp of salt, and 1 tsp of black pepper until evenly coated.

  2. 7

    Cook the Potatoes

    In a separate skillet, heat over medium-high heat. Add the seasoned potatoes and cook for about 15-20 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they are golden brown and tender.

  3. 8

    Serve with Omelet/Scramble

    Once the potatoes are cooked, remove from heat and serve alongside the omelet or scramble.
