Instructions
1.
Cook the Bacon
Heat a skillet over medium heat.
Lay bacon slices in the pan and cook until crispy, flipping as needed (8–12 mins).
Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate.
✅ Tip: Save a little bacon fat to cook the hash browns or eggs for added flavor.
2.
Make the Hash Browns
Rinse the grated potatoes in cold water to remove excess starch, then squeeze dry with a clean towel.
Heat oil or butter in a skillet over medium-high heat.
Add the potatoes in a flat layer, season with salt and pepper, and press down with a spatula.
Cook undisturbed for 5–6 minutes until golden, then flip and cook the other side for 4–5 minutes.
Optional: Stir in onions or seasonings before the flip.
3.
Scramble the Eggs
In a bowl, beat eggs with milk (if using), salt, and pepper.
Heat butter in a nonstick skillet over medium-low heat.
Pour in eggs and stir gently with a spatula, cooking low and slow until softly set.
Remove from heat just before fully cooked (they’ll finish with residual heat).
4.
Toast the Bread
Toast the slices in a toaster or in a pan with a bit of butter.
Spread with butter or jam while hot.

To Serve

Add optional sides like fruit, sausage, or hot coffee/tea for a full diner-style experience.

Variations
Healthier option: Swap bacon for turkey bacon or avocado, use egg whites, or add sautéed spinach to your eggs.
Cheesy eggs: Stir in shredded cheddar, feta, or mozzarella at the end.
Make it a sandwich: Stack bacon, eggs, and cheese between toast or a bagel.
