Eggs

Biscuit, Toast, or English Muffin

Method

Cooking the Eggs

  1. 1

    Prepare the Eggs

    In a non-stick skillet, heat butter or oil over medium heat. Crack the eggs into the skillet and season with salt and pepper. Cook to your desired doneness: sunny-side up, over-easy, scrambled, etc. Remove from heat and set aside.

Making Home Fries

  1. 2

    Prepare the Home Fries

    In a separate skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add diced potatoes and cook for about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they begin to soften.

  2. 3

    Add chopped onion and bell pepper to the skillet with the potatoes. Season with salt and pepper. Continue cooking for an additional 10-15 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the potatoes are golden brown and crispy.

  3. 4

    Once cooked, remove from heat and set aside.

Serving

  1. 5

    Plate and Serve

    On a plate, serve the cooked eggs alongside the home fries. Add your choice of biscuit, toast, or a fluffy English muffin. Enjoy your Plain & Simple breakfast!
