HOME FRIES & EGGS STOVE-TOP CASSEROLE

Steps:

• Start out by microwaving your potatoes as you would for baked potatoes. If you have leftover baked potatoes, you can just use those.
• Once potatoes are cool enough to touch, cut into large cubes (if you prefer them without the skin, peel first) and set aside.
• Fry bacon (or sausage) over medium heat in a 12 inch non-stick pan. Remove and set aside on a paper towel to drain. When cool enough, crumble into pieces.
• Remove grease from pan and discard, but leave a tbs or so of the bacon grease. (If using sausage, remove all grease and add a bit of butter or spray with butter flavor Pam).
• Add cubed potatoes and salt/pepper to taste and cook over medium for a few minutes until undersides are brown. Flip over, stir in slices onions and smash mixture down a bit with a potato masher or the back of a spoon, so it fills the bottom of the pan.
• With a spoon, make 4 "holes" in the potatoes, evenly spaced, about 2.5 inches in diameter. If the potatoes are sticking at all or if the pan looks too dry, add a bit of butter to each hole, or a spray of Pam.
• Crack and drop an egg into each hole and cover pan. You may need to lower the heat a little depending on your stove. Cook covered until the egg whites are mostly set.
• Remove lid and sprinkle egg whites with crumbled bacon and then with the cheese.
• Replace cover and cook on low until cheese is melted and eggs are set. I sometimes throw a splash of water at the side of the pan to created steam right before I recover the pan and turn it to low.
• If it seems as if the underside of the "casserole" is getting overdone, I remove the pan from the heat and leave the lid on for a few minutes, so the top will continue to cook.

FRENCH FRY BREAKFAST CASSEROLE

Steps:

• Begin by warming your French fries in your casserole dish until they are hot to the touch. If using frozen fries, bake them according to the package instructions. The fries work best when slightly crispy to start, so spray them with butter or toss with oil as they bake.
• In a mixing bowl, combine eggs, half and half, salt, pepper, and garlic powder. Whisk to combine. Pour on top of your warmed French fries.
• On top of your French fry and egg mixture, add your desired meats, tomato, and onion, etc. Bake at 400°F for 20 minutes, or until the center of your casserole appears to be done. Remove from the oven and add cheese to the top. Place back into the oven, and bake for an additional 10 minutes, or until cheese is melted and appears to start to turn golden in color. Remove from the oven, serve, and enjoy.
