HEARTY GERMAN FARMER'S BREAKFAST (BAUERNFRUHSTUCK)



Hearty German Farmer's Breakfast (Bauernfruhstuck) image

Great hearty rib-sticking meal for breakfast, lunch or supper! Very popular in my household. This is a versatile one-pan recipe-- you can sub or add ingredients as desired-- try ham, mushrooms, tomatoes, or chives. (Note: For an equally delicious simplified version of Bauernfruhstuck using frozen Potatoes O'Brien, please see my recipe #278230). Delicious! P.S. Any leftovers you have make a wonderful breakfast the next day--reheat a few seconds in the microwave (although I've been known to eat this cold), and serve with toast or stuff into a flour tortilla for a quick breakfast on-the-go.

I wonder about whether to stir this concoction near the end, the recipe doesn't say! I would just eyeball and do what I think is right for me.
