Breakfast With The Carpenters

I love people. I love helping people find solutions. I love cooking. So here you have it, everything I love in one blog. I am going to share some of our favorite breakfast recipes.





What better way to make your day great than a great breakfast to start with. So I am going to invite you to join me for breakfast every day for a few days. This first recipe is a real winner.

Country Eggs & Potatoes

4 Eggs
3 Medium Potatoes (you can substitute canned potatoes for speed)
1 onion
Tony Chachare’s to taste (Cajun seasoning kroger has it WOW)


Cheese (optional)

Start the potatoes first let them cook up in a large frying pan with just a hint of butter and oil. (I prefer olive) Add the onions just as the potatoes start becoming tender. Add a few shakes of Tony Chachare’s. Scramble your eggs while the potatoes are browning. When the potatoes start to brown, start adding the scrambled eggs while, mixing with the potatoes. Cook until the eggs are done and sprinkle with a little cheese or salsa to garnish and add interest.

Fast, Easy, hit, breakfast with my five kids. Zesty and flavorful. Also refrigerates well and tastes just as good the next day.

Let me know what you think or comment your variations.

  1. OK Bill, now I'm hungry!!!! lol

    We make a similar breakfast when we take the scouts out into the woods.

    We don't have to worry about how it turns out, scouts will eat anything. LOL.

  2. Are you slicing the potatoes or chopping them into chuncks? Are the onions minced or chopped? Are the eggs all the way scrambled or do you have to time it so that the potatoes are done and the eggs are almost done in a separate pan and then added to finish in with the potatoes?

    I usually have a hard time with potatoes in the morning for some reason! They seem to take forever to cook and get mushy if I go too long or are hard in the middle when I've not gone long enough. My favorite is taking bulk sausage either by itself or with chopped bell pepper and onion, cooking it like hamburger meat, and then adding eggs to scramble it up together. I add cheese sometimes or not, and include salsa as an option. We either eat this as is, or with biscuits, or tortillas for buritoes.

  4. This looks really good... but, the work? Maybe if I do it for 21 days straight it might not seem like work :-)

    Right now I have the breakfast of champions... two Tim Hortons old fashion donuts and a medium coffee.

    BTW... cute kids!
