Description

A classic, protein-packed breakfast featuring fluffy scrambled eggs, crispy bacon, savory sausage links, thick-sliced ham, and fresh tomato slices—seasoned and garnished to perfection for a comforting and satisfying morning meal.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 large eggs
  • 2 tablespoons milk or cream
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • 4 slices thick-cut bacon
  • 2 pork sausage links
  • 4 slices cooked ham or Canadian bacon
  • 1 fresh tomato, sliced
  • Fresh parsley, chopped, for garnish
  • Optional: paprika or smoked paprika, for dusting

Instructions

  1. Cook the bacon in a skillet over medium heat until crispy. Remove and drain on paper towels.
  2. In the same skillet, cook sausage links until browned and cooked through, about 8–10 minutes. Set aside.
  3. Lightly pan-sear the ham slices for 1–2 minutes per side until warmed and lightly caramelized.
  4. In a mixing bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, salt, and pepper.
  5. Heat butter in a non-stick skillet over low heat. Pour in the eggs and stir slowly until soft, creamy curds form. Remove from heat when slightly underdone, as they will continue to cook from residual heat.
  6. Arrange scrambled eggs, bacon, sausage, and ham on a large plate. Add fresh tomato slices and parsley for color and freshness.
  7. Sprinkle eggs with paprika or smoked paprika, if desired.

Notes

  • Use smoked paprika for added depth of flavor.
  • For a lighter option, substitute turkey bacon and chicken sausage.
  • Serve with toast, hash browns, or grits for a heartier meal.
