Oh my goodness, y’all! Let me tell you about this breakfast recipe that has been making waves in my kitchen. As a busy mom who loves treating her family to something special, I stumbled upon this incredible Farmers Breakfast Skillet that’s become our weekend tradition. Trust me, it’s so good that my husband actually gets out of bed without hitting snooze! 😉
Picture this: crispy golden potatoes, perfectly seasoned breakfast sausage, farm-fresh eggs, and melted cheese all in one skillet. It’s like a warm hug for your taste buds! And the best part? It’s totally customizable to your liking.
Here’s what you’ll need:
– 4 medium potatoes, diced
– 1 pound breakfast sausage
– 1 bell pepper, chopped
– 1 onion, diced
– 8 large eggs
– 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
– Salt and pepper to taste
– 2 tablespoons butter
– Optional: fresh herbs (I love using chives!)
Now, let me walk you through this magic (and yes, grab your coffee first, honey!):
1. Start by parboiling those diced potatoes for about 5 minutes. This is my secret trick for getting them perfectly crispy later!
1. In a large cast-iron skillet (my favorite!), brown that sausage until it’s singing with flavor. Remove it and set aside, leaving those yummy drippings in the pan.
1. Add butter to those drippings (because why not?), then toss in your partially cooked potatoes. Let them get golden and crispy – about 10 minutes. Don’t rush this part, ladies! Good things come to those who wait! 💁♀️

1. Add your peppers and onions to the potatoes, cooking until they’re tender and fragrant.
1. Return the sausage to the pan, then create little wells for your eggs. Crack those babies in there, season with salt and pepper, and cover until the eggs are set to your liking.
1. Sprinkle cheese on top and let it melt into gooey perfection.
1. Garnish with fresh herbs if you’re feeling fancy (and trust me, you should!).
The result? A breakfast that’ll have everyone at the table fighting over the last bite! It serves 6 people, or 4 if you’ve got teenagers like mine who eat like there’s no tomorrow!
Pro tip: I love serving this with some fresh avocado slices and hot sauce on the side. Because everything’s better with avocado, am I right? 🥑
Y’all, this recipe is seriously a game-changer for breakfast or brunch. It’s perfect for those lazy weekend mornings or when you’re hosting friends for breakfast. Plus, it all comes together in one skillet, which means less dishes – and we all know that’s a win!
