Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Ingredients

    Chop the onion, bell pepper, and mushrooms. Mince the garlic. Dice the ham and set aside.

  2. 2

    Cook the Meats

    In a large skillet over medium heat, add the bacon and cook until crispy. Remove and set aside, leaving the grease in the skillet.

Cooking

  1. 3

    Brown the Sausage and Beef

    In the same skillet, add the Italian sausage and ground beef. Cook until browned, breaking up the meat as it cooks. Drain excess fat if necessary.

  2. 4

    Sauté the Vegetables

    Add the chopped onion, bell pepper, and garlic to the skillet. Sauté for about 5 minutes until softened. Then, add the mushrooms and spinach, cooking for another 3-4 minutes.

  3. 5

    Add Seasonings and Ham

    Stir in the salt, black pepper, smoked paprika, and red pepper flakes. Add the diced ham and combine well.

  4. 6

    Cook the Eggs

    Make four wells in the meat mixture and crack an egg into each well. Cover the skillet and cook until the eggs are set to your preference, about 5-7 minutes.

  5. 7

    Add Cheese and Finish

    Sprinkle cheddar cheese over the entire skillet. Cover again for a couple of minutes until the cheese is melted. Garnish with fresh parsley before serving.
