A wonderful, filling breakfast for such a cold, windy morning here on the farm. I had extra diced potatoes from last night's dinner, I added the onion, a red pepper and bacon and this was perfect. Followed this exactly and we just devoured this. This was even quicker to prepare then I thought it was, I put everything on the stove (after mixing) went over took care of chores and upon returning I added a bit of cheese to the top, threw into the oven for a bit, and presto, a wonderful breakfast that truly was special. Thank you!

Yummy! I wanted to make something special for Father's Day for breakfast and came across this recipe. Everyone loved it! I used red pepper from DH's garden and added spices (chili powder, paprika, S/P)to the veggies while they were cooking. Thanks Boyz 5 for helping me get DH's special day off to a delicious start. :o)
