BREAKFAST
Sunrise Skillet
Breakfast needs to happen fast (it’s in the name, right?) so our Sunrise Skillet comes together really quickly, in about the same time it would take to make pancakes or waffles. You could shave some time off by chopping the veggies the night before, so everything can be sizzling in seconds when you need it first thing in the morning. This recipe rocks if you’re serving it to your family and/or hungry guests because it’s all made at once, in one pan, so everyone can serve and share straight away – and cleanup is simple! We like to have lots of salsa or ketchup, and toasted sourdough on hand for dipping into the soft, warm egg yolks. And of course, throw on some coffee, fire up The Breakfast Club, and sing along to some Simple Minds to get that fist-pumping in the air as you walk out the door to start the day.
