potatoes

🥗Healthier: sweet potatoes

💰Cheaper: frozen hash browns

Sweet potatoes add nutrients and fiber.

Warm a large skillet over medium heat.

Add 0.5 pound of bacon to the skillet and fry until crispy, adjusting temperature as needed to prevent burning and popping grease.

Drain the canned potatoes (if using) and ensure they are well-drained before adding them to the skillet.

Once the bacon is crispy, crumble it into pieces and set aside.

In the same skillet, add the drained diced potatoes and cook until heated through, about 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally.

Add diced onion to the skillet and cook until softened, about 3-5 minutes.

Season the mixture with salt and black pepper to taste.

Create wells in the potato mixture and crack 6 eggs into each well.

Cover the skillet and cook until the eggs are set to your liking, about 5-7 minutes.

Sprinkle 1 cup of shredded cheddar cheese over the top and cover until melted, about 2 minutes.

Serve hot, optionally with hot sauce or additional seasonings.
