Super easy one pan breakfast skillet - with sausages, potato, peppers onion and perfectly cooked eggs.
Breakfast Skillet
I love this breakfast skillet, it's a great filling breakfast to start your day
This dish is really versatile, you can add any veg you like for variation. Vegetarians can omit the bacon and sausage and add a vegetarian alternative. You can also do a scrambled egg type mixture, instead of the fried eggs on top. To do this, once your veggies etc are cooked to liking add your eggs whisked and continue to stir until cooked.
Best Potato for Breakfast Skillet
I like to use the baby potatoes that are waxy and slice them into quarters with the skin on, they have a buttery taste and a nice tender bite to them.
You can use regular sized potatoes diced small, but again for for a waxy variety instead of floury types for this recipe.
Low Calorie Sausages
Pick your favourite low calorie sausages for this recipe, if there are none that you like the taste of then why not make up a batch of one of these to use, they are perfect in this recipe diced up cooked and thrown in towards the end.
Can I use lean bacon?
I use one slice of streaky bacon in this recipe, which flavours the skillet and the little bit of fat that's used helped cooked the potatoes and onion etc along with the little bit of stock added.
However if you prefer to just buy lean bacon bacon you can use that instead, you just need to ensure you don't burn anything in the skillet with the lack of oil and ensure the potatoes are tender.
