FIRESIGN SCRAMBLE

FIRESIGN SCRAMBLE

We have had this side dish at our favorite breakfast/lunch restaurant in Lake Tahoe many times. I adapted the recipe to a full dinner so feel free to mix it up and add your favorite meats and vegetables. This is totally comfort food!
Serves 2
2 tbsp -Olive oil
2- red or yellow potatoes
½ large onion
½ red or yellow bell pepper
Here is where you can add other favorite vegetables, maybe tomatoes, zucchini, eggplant, leeks, mushrooms
1 clove garlic, (optional) chopped fine
Seasonings-garlic powder, pepper, salt, I like ‘Emerils seasoning’, cayenne pepper, to taste
Protein source, either cooked chicken, bacon, pancetta, corn beef, ham, salami, pepperoni, sausage
Sometimes you can add 2 eggs for the scramble
Cheese of choice - cheddar, jack, pepper jack, Swiss, Parmesan

Boil potatoes till fork tender, do not over cook. Set aside to cool a bit, cut up into bite size chunks.
Sauté all vegetables in olive oil, if you use bacon or pancetta sauté first and use the fat for the vegetables plus a little olive oil if needed. Try to keep the fat to a minimum. Add in the your favorite protein and continue cooking till potatoes are lightly browned. It should take about 30 minutes. Just before serving top with cheese.
Yummy!
