I'm glad I read this recipe before I began because you make this dish in two batches. Since I cook for only my husband and I, we didn't need to cook for 10, so I bought and made only half of the batch. Worked out great! This was a nice creamy egg dish that had just the right amount of vegetables and meat to it.

One of my favorites for breakfast dinners too. I also do the potatoes different though. I cut them up and fry them in the pan until soft and then do the peppers and continue on with the recipe.

I have been making this recipe for years. The only difference is I use either canned potatoes or thawed hashbrowns to cut down on the prep and cooking time. I have also used colby jack cheese which was delicious as well.
