Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. Wash and dice red potatoes into uniform 1-inch pieces. Toss them with salt and pepper, spread on a greased baking sheet, and roast for 20-25 minutes.
  3. Cook your choice of breakfast sausage in a skillet over medium heat until browned, about 5-7 minutes, then add diced green bell pepper and cook for an additional 3-4 minutes.
  4. Whisk eggs with milk, salt, and pepper, then pour into the skillet with sausage and peppers, cooking until just set, about 4-5 minutes.
  5. Once potatoes are roasted, assemble bowls with crispy potatoes as the base, topped with sausage and egg mixture.
  6. Sprinkle cheddar cheese on each bowl while the mixture is still hot to allow it to melt slightly.
  7. Let the bowls cool completely at room temperature before sealing with airtight lids.
