Roasted Potatoes O'Brien

Good morning, readers! Man, do I love Sunday mornings! Wake up late, drink extra cups of coffee just because you can and, my personal favorite part: BIG BREAKFASTS! 

Nate and I call them "bun breakfasts" because our pet names for each other is "bun" and we're enjoying breakfast together. Adorable, right? 

Anyway, so this particular Sunday we were a little short on ingredients but I put on my Chef's thinking hat and whipped up some fried eggs and roasted potatoes O'Brien. 

Roasted Potatoes O'Brien 

2 Tbsp olive oil 
1/4 large yellow onion, diced 
1/2 orange bell pepper, diced
4 red potatoes, washed and diced
Salt and pepper, to taste 
Sprinkle garlic powder 
Sprinkle red pepper and garlic seasoning  
Sprinkle Sriracha seasoning 

Preheat oven to 400. 

On a large cookie sheet, arrange the onion and bell peppers to make a "bed" for the potatoes. 

Place potatoes on top. 

Once the pan is arranged drizzle with olive oil and season like there's no tomorrow! 

Roast for 30 minutes, taking the pan out at 15 minutes to rotate and flip the potatoes. 

That's it. The potatoes are done. Easy, right? The onions get crisp, the peppers get sweeter and the potatoes have that perfect soft-with-a-bite texture. Yummy! 

Now everyone one knows how to fry an egg, however I decided to swap my cooking spray for a teaspoon of butter and a teaspoon of olive oil and it changed everything!! The egg was flavorful, moist, and cooked perfectly. Must admit, I may never use cooking spray to cook eggs again. 

Well, enjoy your Sunday, readers! Look forward to come tasty meals coming up soon!
