Description
A vibrant and hearty breakfast dish combining crispy potatoes, creamy scrambled eggs, and savory sausage, topped with melted cheese and customizable ingredients.
Ingredients
Scale
- 3 medium Russet Potatoes, diced
- 4 large Eggs
- 1 cup Savory Sausage (pork, turkey, or plant-based)
- 1 cup Cheddar Cheese (or pepper jack for spice)
- 2 tbsp Cooking Oil (vegetable or canola)
- Salt, to taste
- Pepper, to taste
- 1 tbsp Butter
- Toppings (optional): avocado, salsa, green onions, hot sauce
Instructions
- Heat a generous amount of cooking oil in a skillet over medium heat. Once hot, add the diced russet potatoes, seasoning with salt and pepper. Sauté until golden brown and crispy, about 15-20 minutes.
- Whisk the eggs in a mixing bowl until they are light and frothy. Melt butter in a separate pan over low heat, then pour in the eggs and gently scramble them for a soft and creamy consistency.
- Cook the sausage in another skillet until browned and fully cooked through, about 7-10 minutes. Use a spatula to break the sausage into smaller pieces.
- Layer the crispy potatoes into a serving dish, followed by the fluffy scrambled eggs and cooked sausage.
- Sprinkle your cheese of choice over the layered goodness and let it sit for a couple of minutes to melt.
- Add any desired toppings such as sliced avocado, salsa, green onions, or hot sauce. Serve immediately.
Notes
Make the crispy potatoes in advance and warm them up before adding the eggs and sausage to simplify your morning routine. Customize with your favorite toppings.
