Breakfast potatoes have pretty much all the ingredients for a great morning. Bacon, eggs, and even a little maple syrup make this potato dish a winner.

Are the kids getting tired of cereal every morning? Breakfast doesn’t have to be boring, and it doesn’t have to be complicated. You can whip up a fun morning meal in no time using one of our fun kids’ meals. How about some butterfly pancakes for the kids? If you really want to blow their socks off, try making our silly “ice cream” for breakfast recipe.

Breakfast Potatoes

Okay, so this has to be one of the yummiest breakfast recipes ever. There are 2 kinds of potatoes in it, bacon, bell pepper, garlic and maple syrup as well. It is every bit as good as it sounds.

It is a mouthwatering combination of comfort foods that most of us really love. You get to pop the bacon in the over to cook so that eliminates the aggravation of having to stand in the kitchen frying it up and getting grease everywhere.

You simply put the bacon on a parchment paper-lined cookie sheet, pop it in a 350 oven, and it’ll be done in 10 – 15 minutes. All you have to do then is let it cook before you chop it up.

Potato Varieties

If there is a more versatile vegetable than a good old potato, I don’t know what it is. There are so many varieties! (Some say around 4000!!!) This recipe calls for only two: golden potatoes and red potatoes.

The red potatoes are good in recipes like this one because they can soak up the other ingredients without turning mushy. These are the potatoes a lot of people use for hash browns and scalloped potatoes.

I’m personally a BIG Yukon Gold fan. I love those potatoes so, so much. The flavor is a little buttery and they are wonderfully smooth. Absolutely delicious.
