Living the Gourmet: Home Fries and Eggs
There really is nothing like the smell of breakfast cooking. The fresh coffee, toast, eggs; shall I go on….? It is the most comforting of meals to gather round and such a nice start to the weekend. I never get tired of preparing this meal or for that matter enjoying it as well.

    Wow, I wish I had that plate in front of me right now! Home fries are the best but the addition of the jalapeno and a perfectly cooked egg make them a cut above!

    Dear Catherine,
    I agree that breakfast is a terrific meal. It just seems to get your day started and especially with your recipe. I love home fries and with the jalapeño pepper it gives the eggs just that added spice. That is a way to jump start your day for sure. I also like the egg on top, your photo is so inviting…Easy and so yummy..thanks for sharing this! I must try this someday when I am at my parents home as they would love this one…Have a beautiful and fun week..
    Dottie 🙂
