This Farmers Breakfast Bowl is a delicious combination of eggs, potatoes, peppers, onions, ham and cheese all in one hearty bowl!
So you know I’m more of a breakfast for dinner kinda girl. I have to admit, I did not in fact have this for breakfast. I did in fact have it for dinner. I wish I was that type of person who cooks these delicious breakfasts, but in all honesty…I don’t have time for that. Well in all reality I’m sure I do, but I just don’t want to.
Now that Summer is here and the kids and I get to sleep in or a few months out of the year we are throughly enjoying it! So lately our breakfasts are the normal, cereal, pop-tarts, breakfast bars…you know the routine.
But I still absolutely LOVE breakfast food. That’s why this awesome Farmers Breakfast Bowl was our dinner last week!
This bowl is super easy, super tasty and super cheesy. Wow, what a description I even sold myself on that one. It’s one of those dishes that CAN be a one pan meal, but I always make my eggs in a separate pan just because I actually like them to look like eggs when they are served.
When I make my breakfast burritos I usually just do it all in one pan the eggs more or less coat everything else and don’t look appealing, but still good as heck!
Here is another little trick to make this dish even more simple than the recipe that I will share with you if you want to same yourself some time and effort. I use regular diced hashbrown potatoes in my recipe and add chopped peppers and onions.
If you wanna skip the slicing and dicing of peppers and onions, go ahead and grab yourself a bag of O’Brien potatoes, they come with the peppers and stuff right in the bag. Usually I like to do that, but I had some produce that I needed to use up and this delicious Farmers Breakfast Bowl was born.
Enjoy!

This breakfast bowl was fast, easy, and delicious. I used egg whites, less potatoes, added spinach, and used a combination of Colby and Monterey Jack cheeses. My husband loved it!

Oh yes that would hit the spot! A bowl like this is just what I like to order when I’m out. Better yet, I’ll have it in and eat this!

This is absolutely my kind of breakfast (or breakfast-for-dinner)! I love a loaded-up bowl of goodness and this hits the spot. In fact, there was a cafe near me in college that had a ton of variations of this type of thing (different meats/veggies/cheeses to change up the flavors ever so slightly) and it was ALWAYS where we headed on the weekends to get our big breakfast fix. Now I’m just going to have to make it myself – and this is where I want to start! Pinned!
