Crock-Pot Fresh Breakfast Bake
Crock-Pot Fresh Breakfast Bake was a recipe I came up with to have a new dish to serve eggs and potatoes to my family. My family really enjoys when I cook with fresh potatoes and with our flock of chickens we always have an abundance of eggs!
This recipe is fairly easy to put together and is also flexible which is what I love about Crock-Pots. You can use any potato, the cheeses you could be changed to a Colby Jack, Parmesan, or even Swiss and you can add peppers, tomatoes, or even beans.
These are the types of recipes that you figure out what is in your fridge and use it all up. I love when I’m able to reuse a food and thus not waste it. I used a moderate spicy sausage as that is what I had on hand. Feel free to use a mild or spicy sausage, and of course add peppers if you desire.
