Notes

  1. If you are looking to save time in the kitchen, you can prep this dish the night before and heat through the next day before serving.
  2. Can be used as a go-to meal prep breakfast option.
  3. To reheat, place in the microwave on high for 1-2 minutes or oven at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for 5-10 minutes.
  4. Can be cooked in a large casserole dish if the recipe is doubled or tripled. If cooked in a casserole dish, cook the potatoes in the casserole dish instead of cooking on a baking sheet.
