How to Make Farmer's Breakfast

  1. In a microwave-safe dish, combine 1 cup cubed potatoes, 1/2 cup chopped green bell pepper, and 1 tablespoon butter.
  2. Cover and microwave on high for 7-8 minutes, or until vegetables are tender. Stir halfway through.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together 2 large eggs, 1/4 cup milk, and a pinch of black pepper. Stir in 1/2 cup chopped cooked ham and 1/2 cup sliced mushrooms.
  4. Pour the egg mixture into the potato mixture.
  5. Cover and microwave at 70% power for 8-10 minutes, or until eggs are almost set. Stir every 2 minutes to ensure even cooking.
  6. Sprinkle with 1/4 cup shredded cheddar cheese (or your favorite cheese).
  7. Cook uncovered on high for 1-2 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly, and the eggs are fully cooked.
