Oh my goodness, y’all! Let me tell you about this breakfast recipe that has my family practically licking their plates clean every single weekend. As a busy mom who loves treating her family to something special, I stumbled upon this incredible Farmer’s Breakfast Skillet that’s seriously to die for!
Listen up, because this hearty breakfast is about to become your new weekend tradition. Trust me, your family will be naming you breakfast queen after this one! 🥘
What you’ll need (serves 4):
– 6 red potatoes, diced
– 8 slices of bacon, chopped
– 1 bell pepper (I use red for the pretty color!)
– 1 medium onion, diced
– 8 large eggs
– 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
– Fresh chives for garnish
– Salt and pepper to taste
Y’all, here’s how the magic happens:
1. Start by frying up that bacon in a large cast-iron skillet until it’s nice and crispy (about 5-7 minutes). Remove it to a paper towel-lined plate, but leave that liquid gold (bacon fat) in the pan!
1. Toss those diced potatoes into the bacon fat (I know, I know, but we’re living our best life here!). Season with salt and pepper, and let them get all golden and crispy for about 10-12 minutes. Don’t rush this part, honey – good things take time!

1. Add your diced onions and peppers to the potatoes. Cook for another 5 minutes until they’re tender and fragrant.
1. Now here’s where it gets fun! Make little wells in your potato mixture and crack those eggs right in. Season them with a bit more salt and pepper, cover the skillet, and let them cook for about 5-6 minutes until the whites are set but the yolks are still runny (or longer if you’re not into runny yolks – no judgment here!).
1. Sprinkle that cheese all over and add the bacon back in. Cover for another minute until the cheese gets all melty and gorgeous.
1. Finish it off with fresh chives, and voilà! Breakfast is served!
Pro tip from yours truly: I love serving this with some warm buttermilk biscuits on the side because, let’s be real, can you ever have too many carbs at breakfast? (Don’t answer that! 😜)
Y’all, this recipe is pure comfort food that’ll have everyone gathering around the table faster than you can say “breakfast is ready!” It’s perfect for lazy weekend mornings, and honestly, I’ve even made it for dinner because who doesn’t love breakfast for dinner?
