Scrambles are one of my favourite meals to make – for breakfast or dinner!

They’re quick and easy, yet packed with flavour (and vegetables!). Depending which vegetables you add, a scramble can have a completely different flavour – here’s one of my favourites:

 

Easy Breakfast Scramble

Directions

1. Boil potatoes, until fork tender (~ 10 minutes).
2. Meanwhile, heat oil in a large skillet. Add green pepper and onion. Cook until tender (~ 3 minutes).
3. Fry bacon in another skillet. Once crisp, add to green pepper and onions. Keep warm. Drain as much fat as possible from skillet.
