Method

Eggs

  1. 1

    Cook the Eggs

    Choose your preferred style (scrambled, sunny-side up, or over-easy). In a non-stick skillet, cook the eggs over medium heat until done to your liking, about 3-5 minutes.

Smash Browns

  1. 2

    Prepare the Potatoes

    Peel and cube the russet potatoes. Boil in salted water for about 10 minutes until fork-tender. Drain and let them cool slightly.

  2. 3

    Smash and Cook

    On a hot skillet, add olive oil. Once heated, place the boiled potatoes and smash them gently with a spatula. Season with salt, pepper, and garlic powder. Cook for 4-5 minutes on each side until golden and crispy.

Toast

  1. 4

    Toast the Bread

    Toast the bread slices in a toaster or on a skillet until golden brown. Spread whipped butter on top before serving.

House-made Preserves

  1. 5

    Make the Preserves

    In a small saucepan, combine the fresh fruit, sugar, and lemon juice. Cook over medium heat for about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the mixture thickens slightly. Remove from heat and let cool.

Protein Choice

  1. 6

    Cook the Protein

    Cook your choice of protein (ham, bacon, sage sausage, or turkey sausage) in a skillet over medium heat until heated through and crispy, about 3-5 minutes.
