This recipe has been in my family for years. We always called it "Farmer's Breakfast". To simply it, I use frozen hash browns, the chunky style. My family gobbles this up and it is great left over and warmed in the microwave. Nice to see simple things on this site!

Instead of garlic salt, I used 2 cloves minced garlic and diced green onions. Pretty delicious.

This is a great recipe, however I eliminated the grease and replaced with a couple tbsp of salt-free butter to fry the potatoes to make it a lower fat and cholestorol recipe. I also added just a little chopped onion and tomato if you like veggies. For a spice add some fresh jalepeno

Good recipe...I doubled the bacon, added a touch of milk to the eggs and put the crumbled bacon on top of the cheese after it melted....yummy If I had small children or teenagers at home I would call it "Breakfast Pizza"

As a "poor college student" I practically lived off of this dish for a couple semesters. To make it lower in fat, omit bacon and use either a tiny bit of butter or a non-stick skillet. You can also add some broccoli to get some fiber in there and add a little color-not to mention vitamins! (Nutrition Major-can you tell?)

This is a very versatile recipe. It's good with bacon, but browned sausage or ham can also be used. I have also used frozen Potatoes O'Brien, which have peppers and onions in them. Delish.

I too use garlic powder instead of salts and also add onion. I use a thawed a pkg. of hash brown potatoes...so much faster and easier. Fry up a whole pound of bacon. Save half and use half for other recipes that call for bacon.

I've been making a version of this for years. It's one of our camping trip favorites. I make extra boiled potatoes for supper and cube them up, fry them and add whatever meats and spices we want. Great with a spicy chili sauce on the side. A one dish wonder. Can me made for one or the whole family. Quick and delicious.

Potatoes, cheese, bacon....can it get any better?? I use sharp or extra sharp cheddar for even more yummy flavor. Yes, I agree with prior review...add cooked bacon after melting cheese if you want your bacon crisp.

We've been making this in my family for over 50 years, didn't realize that not everyone knew about it. We call it 'camping eggs' and make a lot of variations w/different meats, cheeses, veggies, etc. Enjoy!

I make this with lots of variations: onions, chili powder and 1/2 cup of picante sauce. Sometimes I use diced ham or even 1/3-1/2 lb. hamburger meat and leave out the eggs. It's a one pot easy filling meal. It makes a good filling for burritos.

Added some green pepper, sweet onion, (extra bacon) and wow. This is good good stuff. We used Yukon Gold potatoes to give it a buttery delicious flavor.

I used vegetarian bacon and had to add extra spices to make up for the lack of flavor. Also added mushrooms and onions, which I cooked separately and added at the end. Great food to feed a hungover husband on a Sunday morning! :)

Fantastic recipe! My husband and I loved it and I will definitely be adding this one to my list of favorite breakfasts. It's the ultimate comfort food! The only thing I did differently was I scrambled the eggs separately and mixed them in at the end...so very good!

This was pretty good. I replaced the regular bacon with pancetta and used frozen diced potatoes to speed up the time. I had to add more seasonings to suit our taste, but all in all It was delious, hubby enjoyed it as well! Thanks!
