Ingredients
  

4 medium potatoes, diced

1 tablespoon olive oil

1 small onion, diced

1 bell pepper (any color), diced

1 cup cooked breakfast sausage, crumbled

4 large eggs

1 cup shredded cheddar cheese

Salt and pepper to taste

Fresh chives or green onions, chopped (for garnish)

Optional: hot sauce, salsa, or avocado slices for serving

Instructions
 

Cook the Potatoes: In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced potatoes, season with salt and pepper, and cook for about 15-20 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they are golden brown and tender.

    Sauté Vegetables: Add the diced onion and bell pepper to the skillet. Cook for another 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables are softened.

      Add Sausage: Stir in the crumbled cooked breakfast sausage and heat for an additional 2-3 minutes until everything is warmed through.

        Cook the Eggs: Create small wells in the mixture and crack an egg into each well. Cover the skillet with a lid and cook for about 5-7 minutes, or until the eggs are set to your liking.

          Add Cheese: Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese over the skillet, cover again, and let it melt for a couple of minutes.

            Garnish and Serve: Once everything is ready, remove from heat, garnish with chopped chives or green onions, and serve hot with optional hot sauce, salsa, or avocado slices on the side.
