Oh. My. Goodness. Y’all, let me tell you about this breakfast recipe that’s been making my family fight over the last bite! As a busy mom who loves treating her family to something special, I’ve perfected this Farmhouse Morning Glory Breakfast Skillet that’ll make you want to jump out of bed.
Trust me, this isn’t your basic eggs and bacon situation. This is the kind of breakfast that’ll make your mother-in-law ask for the recipe (like mine did, and she never asks for recipes 😉).
Here’s what you’ll need:
– 6 farm-fresh eggs
– 1 pound of russet potatoes, diced
– 8 oz mushrooms, sliced
– 1 bell pepper, chopped
– 1 sweet onion, diced
– 6 strips of thick-cut bacon
– 2 cups fresh spinach
– 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
– Fresh herbs (I love thyme and chives)
– Salt and pepper to taste
– 2 tablespoons butter
Now, let’s get cooking, girlfriend!
1. Start by cutting your bacon into bite-sized pieces and frying them in a large cast-iron skillet until crispy. Remove and set aside, but leave that liquid gold (bacon fat) in the pan!
1. Toss in those diced potatoes and let them get all golden and crispy (about 10-12 minutes). Pro tip: Don’t mess with them too much – let them develop that gorgeous crust!
1. Add your onions and peppers to the party. Let them dance with those potatoes for about 5 minutes until they’re soft and fragrant.
1. Throw in those mushrooms and cook until they’re golden brown (about 4-5 minutes).

1. Create little wells in your vegetable mixture and crack those eggs right in there. Season with salt and pepper.
1. Sprinkle that cheese all over (because more cheese = more happiness), add your crispy bacon back in, and cover until the eggs are cooked to your liking.
1. Finish with a sprinkle of fresh herbs, and voilà! Breakfast is served!
The best part? This entire masterpiece comes together in about 30 minutes, which means you can totally make it on a weekend morning without missing your favorite shows.
I love serving this with some crusty sourdough bread and fresh fruit on the side. And honey, don’t forget the hot sauce if you’re feeling spicy! 🌶️
Can we talk about how versatile this recipe is? Feel free to swap ingredients based on what’s in your fridge – that’s what us smart cookies do! Sometimes I add diced tomatoes, switch up the cheese, or throw in some leftover roasted veggies from dinner.
