Creating your Simple Loaded Breakfast Skillet is simple and can be accomplished with these easy steps:
1. Preheat your Skillet: Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
2. Cook the Potatoes: Add the diced potatoes and season with salt, pepper, garlic powder, and paprika. Cook for about 10-12 minutes, stirring occasionally until they are golden and tender.
3. Add Vegetables: Stir in the chopped bell peppers and onions. Continue to cook for an additional 5 minutes until the vegetables are soft.
