Ingredients

  • 2 large Russet potatoes
  • 3 tablespoons Olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon Salt
  • 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
  • 4 large Eggs
  • 2 tablespoons Milk
  • 1 tablespoon Unsalted butter
  • 1 medium Avocado
  • 1 teaspoon Fresh lime juice
  • 0.5 cup Salsa
  • 2 tablespoons Fresh cilantro
  • 0.5 cup Shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1 teaspoon Hot sauce (optional)

Directions

Step 1

Peel and dice the russet potatoes into small cubes (about 1/2-inch).

Step 2

Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the diced potatoes, salt, and black pepper. Cook for 12-15 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the potatoes are golden brown and crispy. Remove from heat and set aside.

Step 3

In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, and a pinch of salt.

Step 4

Heat 1 tablespoon of butter in a nonstick skillet over medium-low heat. Pour in the egg mixture and cook, stirring gently with a spatula, until the eggs are softly scrambled. Remove from heat and set aside.

Step 5

Slice the avocado in half, remove the pit, and scoop the flesh into a small bowl. Mash with a fork and mix in lime juice and a pinch of salt.

Step 6

To assemble the bowls, divide the crispy potatoes between two serving bowls as the base.

Step 7

Top the potatoes with equal portions of scrambled eggs, mashed avocado, and salsa.

Step 8

Sprinkle shredded cheddar cheese over the top and garnish with fresh cilantro.

Step 9

Optionally, drizzle with hot sauce for some added spice.

Step 10

Serve immediately and enjoy your delicious 'Brunch in a Bowl'!
