Ingredients
Scale
- 1/2 pound bacon or sausage
- 2 medium onions, chopped
- 1 large green pepper, chopped
- 2 pounds sweet potatoes, peeled and cut into 1/2″ cubes
- 4-6 eggs
- kosher salt
- black pepper
- 1 tsp fresh thyme
Instructions
- Cook the bacon or sausage in a large skillet over medium heat until it begins to brown and crisp. Remove the meat to a paper towel and drain off some of the grease, leaving enough to cook the veggies.
- Add the onions, green pepper, 1/2 tsp salt, 1/2 tsp pepper and cook until the veggies are softened about 6 minutes. Stir in the potatoes and another 1/2 tsp salt. If needed, add a bit more bacon grease.
- Cover the pan and cook, stirring occasionally, until the potatoes are tender and starting to brown, about 10-14 minutes. Stir in thyme, cooked bacon or sausage, and any additional salt and pepper needed.
- Create indentations for the eggs and crack them into the holes. Season eggs and cover the pan. Lower the heat to medium-low and cook without removing the lid for about 7 minutes. Serve immediately.
