Nutritional yeast adds a cheesy flavor with fewer calories.

Heat the olive oil in a 12-inch skillet over medium heat.

Scatter in the sliced potatoes, and season with 1/2 teaspoon salt.

Cook, tossing in the oil, until the potatoes begin to brown, about 5 minutes.

Crumble the sausage into the pan in large chunks.

Cook and stir until the sausage begins to brown, 2 to 3 minutes.

Add the onion and bell pepper, and toss well.

Season with a little salt and peperoncino, cover, and cook, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables are golden and tender, 10 to 15 minutes.

Uncover, and make six indentations in the potato mixture with the back of a tablespoon.

Break the eggs into the indentations, and season them with salt.

Cover, and cook over medium heat until the eggs are set to your liking, 6 to 7 minutes for set whites with still-runny yolks.

Sprinkle with parsley and serve.
