Eggs

Breakfast Potatoes

Bacon

Toast

Method

Eggs

  1. 1

    Prepare the Eggs

    In a small bowl, crack the two eggs and season with salt and black pepper. Whisk lightly to combine.

  2. 2

    Cook the Eggs

    In a non-stick skillet, add 1 tablespoon of butter over medium heat. Once melted, pour in the eggs. Cook to your desired doneness (sunny-side up, scrambled, or over-easy), usually about 3-4 minutes for sunny-side up.

Breakfast Potatoes

  1. 3

    Prepare the Potatoes

    Wash and dice the medium potatoes into small cubes. Pat them dry with a paper towel.

  2. 4

    Cook the Potatoes

    In a large skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced potatoes and season with garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Cook for about 15-20 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the potatoes are golden brown and crispy.

Bacon

  1. 5

    Cook the Bacon

    In a separate skillet, cook the two pieces of bacon over medium heat until crispy, about 5-7 minutes. Flip halfway through for even cooking. Once done, transfer to a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess fat.

Toast

  1. 6

    Toast the Bread

    In a toaster, toast the two slices of bread to your desired level of crispiness.

  2. 7

    Butter and Serve

    Once toasted, spread 1 tablespoon of butter on the toast. Optionally, add your favorite jam or jelly on top.
