Make It

Add onions and peppers to skillet; cook and stir on medium heat 3 min. Add potatoes; cook 10 min., stirring occasionally.

Kraft Kitchens Tips

Size-Wise

Serve your family this simple morning skillet on a special weekend.

Creative Leftovers

Add chopped leftover tomatoes or cooked broccoli to the potato mixture. Also, this is a great use for leftover cooked potatoes. If using cooked potatoes, just chop and cook with the peppers and onions until heated through.

Shortcut

Instead of cubing and cooking the potatoes yourself, use 1 pkg. (1 lb. 4 oz.) frozen hash browns. Add to skillet after cooking peppers and onions; cook until heated through. Continue as directed.

Easy and good. The whole family liked it. I used turkey bacon so I had to add some oil to the skillet with the veggies. the potatoes stuck to the pan a bit.

This was delicious 7 so easy! We had this for dinner as a spur of the moment meal & it was perfect for that. I cooked the potatoes while I prepped the pepper & onion & cooked the bacon in the microwave. When the potatoes were done, I chopped them & moved forward w/ the recipe then finished browning the bacon in the pan & boiled the potatoes in. Very good!

This is a fairly good recipe but despite it's name, there's nothing special about it, so I won't be taking the time to make it again. I fix something similar with eggs scrambled into the mix. I think I'd like this one better that way.

Fantastic recipe. Hit the spot for a nice hot comfort food kind of day. I added 3 cloves of garlic to mine we love it. I would make it again. I happen to have a half small yellow pepper and red and used both. I loved how carmelized everything was I cooked it a little longer so that the potatoes got crispy! YUM.

I've made a variation of this since I was a teen. I don't boil the potatoes first, I steam them, like a one skillet.

This recipe is awesome and definitely leaves room for lots of substitutions! I added sausage to it, and used green instead of red pepper. The only thing is that my peppers ended up burning, so I might wait until near the end to add them. I also did scrambled eggs mixed with salsa instead of the fried eggs. Probably added more bacon and cheese than in the recipe, but we just like bacon and cheese!

I liked this one (I'm about to go have it this morning). There's a lot of substitution possibilities with this one. The sausage gravy is one I hadn't thought of that I want to try. Sweet Italian sausage is good. Also, mushrooms, fresh spinach, or peeled & seeded diced tomatoes work well. Usually, I use a small skillet and make individual servings using 1 small potato and as much of the other ingredients as the diner desires.
