Meal Prep Roasted Potato Breakfast

So I was sitting on Pinterest the other day, like most of us do… anyway I was looking at different Whole 30 meal plans that other people had published and it hit me like a ton of bricks. Why on earth had I not thought about meal prepping breakfast? If you have read some of my other breakfast recipes like my Cranberry Date Oatmeal you know I have a love hate relationship with breakfast. So when I was hit with the metaphorical ton of bricks, I got really excited! I can make breakfast ahead of time so when I am half awake and grumbling in the morning and when my husband always complains how hungry he is after his morning workout I just have to point to the fridge! Thank you Meal Prep Roasted Potato Breakfast!

So my inspiration for these beautiful make ahead breakfasts comes from my younger days, ‘cabin breakfast’ we called them. Growing up during the summer in Minnesota like most other families every weekend was spent ‘Up North’ at the cabin. During these weekend mornings at the cabin we generally would have one of two common breakfasts, waffles or cabin breakfast. Cabin Breakfast consisted of diced up potatoes, peppers, onions, some sort of breakfast meat, scrambled eggs, cheese, and seasoning. Cabin breakfast was thrown together on one giant plate and devoured, usually with ketchup. Ahh the thought of cabin breakfast makes me happy 🙂

So Meal Prep Roasted Potato Breakfast plays off a simpler version of cabin breakfast and since my family is currently doing Whole 30 it is also Whole 30 compliant. Baby red potatoes, green & red bell peppers, and an onion are covered in spices and roasted. Meanwhile eggs are scrambled. When everything is done cooking, it is as simple as portioning everything out and viola breakfast is ready for the week. My whole family has been so pumped having a great breakfast ready to go in the morning. I have been adding Whole 30 approved salsa to the top of mine after I reheat it and it is so good! If you are not concerned with Whole 30 you can add cheese or ketchup if you wish.  I really can’t believe I didn’t think about meal prepping breakfast before, it is definitely a game changer for my family.
