Start your day with a hearty and flavorful breakfast scramble featuring eggs, bacon, potatoes, vegetables, and cheese. This easy-to-make recipe is perfect for a quick weekday breakfast or a lazy weekend brunch. Packed with protein and veggies, it will keep you satisfied and energized throughout the day.

Ingredients

  • 4 slices bacon, diced
  • 1 small onion, diced
  • 1 bell pepper, diced
  • 2 garlic cloves, minced
  • 2 potatoes, peeled and diced
  • 6 large eggs
  • 1/4 cup milk
  • 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Directions

  1. In a large skillet, cook the diced bacon over medium heat until crispy. Remove the bacon from the skillet and set aside.
  2. In the same skillet with the bacon fat, add the diced onion, bell pepper, and minced garlic. Cook until the vegetables are softened, about 5 minutes.
  3. Add the diced potatoes to the skillet. Cook for about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the potatoes are golden brown and tender.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, and pepper.
  5. Pour the egg mixture over the cooked vegetables and potatoes in the skillet. Stir gently to combine.
  6. Cook the mixture over medium-low heat, stirring occasionally, until the eggs are cooked through but still slightly runny, about 5-7 minutes.
  7. Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese and cooked bacon over the top of the scramble. Cover the skillet and let it sit for a minute or two to allow the cheese to melt.
  8. Remove the cover and gently stir the cheese and bacon into the scramble.
  9. Garnish with fresh chopped parsley and serve hot.
