_If you don’t have one yet, a skillet is always a great thing to have in your kitchen,
particularly if you want to cook something as delicious as this **Wholesome Breakfast
Skillet**._

Sure, a skillet can be bulky, but they’re an investment that is sure to last for
years.

A good skillet isn’t just hard-wearing, it provides a really interesting depth of
flavour to your dishes. We love to throw this breakfast skillet together on the 
weekends when we have a little time on our hands, and we need a protein hit for 
the day of activity ahead.

### Ingredients

 * 400 grams Potatoes-cubed
 * 200 grams Bacon rash-cut into chunks
 * 2 Capsicum-colour of your choice
 * 1 Red onion-sliced
 * 2 cups Mushroom-sliced
 * 2 cups Cheddar cheese-grated
 * 8 Eggs
 * 2 tsp Garlic powder-or to taste
 * 2 tsp Paprika-or to taste
 * 1 tsp Salt-or to taste
 * 1 tsp Black pepper-or to taste

[[

### Directions

 * Bring a pot of water to the boil and cook potatoes until tender but still firm.
   You can also choose to cook in microwave if you want.
 * Put the bacon chunks into a large, deep skillet.
 * Cook on a medium-high heat until they are well browned. Remove from skillet and
   set aside. Drain grease from pan (optional)
 * Place the potatoes into the skillet and cook on a medium heat until they are 
   browned. Flip or stir to prevent sticking.
 * Add in the capsicums, onion and mushrooms, cooking until all vegetables are render.
 * Stir in the cooked bacon, the garlic powder, paprika and salt and paper (to taste).
 * Sprinkle half the cheese into the mix, then stir. Add the rest over the top.
 * Now break the eggs into the mixture, spreading them evenly around the top of 
   the skillet. Pop a lid on the skillet and cook on a low heat until the eggs are
   cooked through. You’ll see this when the egg whites are no longer transparent.
   Cook for longer if you like your yolks well done.
