Breakfast Scramble

Standard weekday breakfasts in our house consist of some fresh fruit and cereal, but on lazy weekend mornings I like to treat Ryan and myself to a nice hot breakfast. We usually have the traditional breakfast of eggs, bacon or sausage, potatoes and toast, but this last weekend I wanted something a little different. I happened to have a couple of potatoes, some onions, green bell peppers, sausage, cheddar cheese and eggs and I decided to throw it all together in the skillet to cook. It was so delicious that I thought I would share it with you just in time for the weekend.

Skillet breakfasts like this are nice because you can throw in whatever you have on hand.  I have made them before with a few diced tomatoes, mushrooms and fresh baby spinach leaves. Bacon or some spicy chorizo would also be great in here.
