I like making this on Saturday mornings (occasionally) for my family. It gives my mom a break from making food, and my family loves it. Great recipe!!
When I made this, I cut up breakfast sausage and made scrambled eggs in a frying pan and mixed it in with the cheese at the end. Then I at least knew that the eggs were completely cooked.
When making this we switch the Cheddar for brie cheese, which we add just before the eggs. This is a go to reciepe for us. Just love it
I thought this was alright. It was nice to only have one dirty pan though, and you do not have to worry about flipping the eggs. I added some red pepper flakes to spice it up!
Yummy, yummy, yummy! Frozen O'Brien potatoes are the way to go, then you don't need to chop onions & peppers. Family loves this!
This recipe was very delicious! Instead of using only cheddar, I used a mozza, parma, cheddar blend....and it was very tasty! Thinking of adding red pepper next time! And the best thing of all....there was only one skillet to clean!
One of the first from Quick Cooking recipes that I made and my family LOVED it. I use potatoes O'Brien to make the prep even easier. A great recipe.
I made this and brought it to a neighbors house. I couldn't get enough praises on this recipe. This is really easy and delish!
We have enjoyed this since it was first published. I made some modifications to lower the fat. I use 3 eggs and 3/4 cup egg substitute, reduced-fat sharp cheddar cheese, and lean turkey bacon. Because the eggs are no longer whole, I push the potatoes to the middle and sides to form a trough in the pan and pour the eggs into the trough. Then proceed with the recipe. Frequently, I use cubed cooked potatoes instead of frozen. Good meal.
