8 bacon strips                                                              6 cups frozen hash brown potatoes

1/4 cup chopped onion                                             3/4 cup chopped green pepper

1 tsp. Salt                                                                      1/4 tsp. Pepper

6 eggs                                                                            ½ cup shredded cheddar cheese

 

Cook bacon until crisp - remove bacon; crumble and set aside.  Drain fat, reserving 2 Tbsp. Drippings.  Add potatoes, green pepper, onion, salt and pepper to drippings; cook and stir for 2 minutes.  Cover and cook, stirring occasionally until potatoes are browned and tender - about 15 minutes.  Make six wells in the potato mixture; break one egg into each well.  Cover and cook on low heat for 8-10 minutes or until eggs are completely set.  Sprinkle with cheese and bacon.
