Loaded Breakfast Potato!
You can customize it with whatever you have on hand. I microwaved the baked potato, so no need to heat up an oven in the summer for an hour to make this!
What vegetables did I use?
Since today is Friday – I looked in my vegetable drawer to see what I had:
- a few baby bell peppers
- small yellow onion
- kale
- broccolini
- green onions
How do you cook a potato?
Since it’s summer time – I didn’t want to take the time or heat my kitchen up by baking a potato – so my easy method is just to cook it in the microwave for 5 minutes. I wash the skin well, pat dry, wrap in a paper towel and cook. While the potato is cooking, you can start assembling the toppings!
