Cheesy Breakfast Potatoes with Crispy Bacon are a delicious addition to the breakfast menu and are loaded with cheese and one of the most amazing foods, Applewood smoked bacon. This delicious breakfast recipe is so hearty and delicious, it will satisfy everyone in the family. I love potatoes for breakfast, and being a mom of a full house, I learned early on that you can really stretch your budget and your food by making potatoes with tons of delicious ingredients mixed into them. I routinely made this recipe on the weekends because it was absolutely delicious and so substantial, no one complained about being hungry, even when it was time for lunch!
Ingredients:
4 potatoes, peeled, diced into small pieces
½ cup green bell pepper, diced small
½ cup onions, chopped
3 cloves garlic, minced
2-3 tablespoon olive oil, might need more
1 teaspoon salt, more or less to taste
1 teaspoon black pepper
1-2 cups sharp cheddar cheese, shredded
8-10 pieces Applewood smoked bacon, crumbled into small pieces
Optional: sour cream for topping
Instructions:
In a large skillet or frying pan, heat oil over medium heat. Add potatoes. Cook until potatoes just start to brown. Stir in onions, bell pepper and garlic. Add salt and pepper. Cook until onions are translucent and potatoes are brown and crispy. In the meantime while the potatoes are cooking, cook bacon to desired crispiness. When cooked, place bacon on a plate lined with paper towels. Once cooled, crumble bacon. Set aside. When potatoes are finished cooking, turn off heat and sprinkle shredded cheese over the top of the potatoes while they are still in the pan. Add bacon crumbles. Spoon onto plate and add sour cream, and green onions, if desired.
