What Makes This Recipe So Good

  • This country omelette is super easy to make! Just cook the bacon and potatoes, then pour in the eggs and let the oven finish the job. It’s so much easier than spending the morning cooking several individual omelettes!
  • It’s a stress-free way to serve company. The serving sizes are totally adjustable, so you can cut slimmer slices to feed more people. Serve with a side of fresh fruit and POG juice, and you’ve got a complete breakfast that is sure to impress!
  • You can totally customize this country omelette! Add some cooked mushrooms, diced bell peppers, or any other veggies you have on hand. Switch out regular bacon for canadian bacon, or even turkey bacon. It’s super versatile, which is especially great if you have picky eaters!

Chef’s Tips

  • You can take this omelette to the next level with seasonings. Add more flavor by tossing the cubed potatoes in your favorite seasoning before cooking. You can also add some paprika or red pepper flakes when whisking the eggs. The flavor possibilities are endless with this dish!
  • This country omelette is great for meal prepping. Slice your cooked omelette, and portion into individual-sized airtight containers. Leftovers will stay fresh up to 3 days in the fridge. Cooked omelettes stored in an airtight container will last up to 3 months in the freezer.

6 servings

Ingredients

  • 3 slices uncooked bacon cut into 1-inch pieces
  • 1 cup peeled and cubed potatoes 1-inch cubes
  • salt
  • freshly cracked black pepper
  • 6 large eggs
  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • ¼ cup milk of choice
  • 2 tablespoons chopped fresh chives

Equipment

  • Plate
  • Paper towels
  • large oven-safe skillet
  • Tongs
  • Silicone spatula
  • Medium mixing bowl
  • Whisk

Instructions 

  • Preheat oven to 350° Fahrenheit. Line plate with 2 to 3 paper towels and set aside.
  • Heat large skillet over medium heat. When pan is hot, add bacon pieces and cook 2 to 3 minutes or until bacon is crispy but not burnt. Carefully remove bacon pieces from skillet and place on plate lined with paper towels. Set aside to let excess grease drain off.
  • Add cubed potatoes, 1 pinch salt, and 1 pinch black pepper to skillet and stir to incorporate. Cook potatoes 10 minutes or until slightly crispy. Tines of fork should easily pierce potatoes through to center with little to no resistance. When potatoes are ready, transfer potatoes to plate with cooked bacon.
  • Crack eggs into medium mixing bowl. Add milk of choice, 1 pinch salt, and 1 pinch pepper, then vigorously whisk together ingredients until mixture is pale in color and eggs are no longer streaky. Set eggs aside.
  • Carefully drain any remaining bacon fat from skillet then return skillet to medium heat. Add butter to skillet and let butter melt, swirling pan occasionally to distribute melted butter across surface of skillet.
  • Once butter is completely melted (but not yet browned or bubbling), immediately reduce heat to low and let pan cool slightly.
  • Pour egg mixture into skillet. Arrange cooked bacon, potatoes, and chopped chives evenly across top of egg mixture, then carefully move skillet from stovetop into preheated oven.
  • Bake dish 6 to 8 minutes or until eggs are set. Eggs should still appear slightly shiny or moist, and center of omelette should be completely set with slight jiggle.
  • Once eggs are fully cooked, carefully remove skillet from oven. Slice omelette into desired number of servings and serve immediately with fresh fruit, toast, or other sides of choice.

Notes

  • Make it Dairy-Free: Use dairy-free butter and dairy-free milk. 
  • Make it Whole30: Use unsweetened coconut milk and replace the butter with ghee. Make sure, too, that your bacon is Whole30 compliant.
