Hearty German Farmer's Breakfast Bauernfruhstuck

---

Great hearty rib-sticking meal for breakfast, lunch or supper! Very popular in my household. This is a versatile one-pan recipe-- you can sub or add ingredients as desired-- try ham, mushrooms, tomatoes, or chives. (note: for an equally delicious simplified version of bauernfruhstuck using frozen potatoes o'brien, please see my recipe #278230). Delicious! P.s. Any leftovers you have make a wonderful breakfast the next day--reheat a few seconds in the microwave (although i've been known to eat this cold), and serve with toast or stuff into a flour tortilla for a quick breakfast on-the-go.
