How to Make Polish Easter Breakfast

  1. Heat the electric skillet to medium heat. Add the kielbasa and cook, breaking it into smaller pieces with a spoon, until browned and slightly crispy (about 8-10 minutes).
  2. Add the onion and bell pepper to the skillet; cook until softened, about 5 minutes.
  3. Stir in the potatoes and cook for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they begin to soften.
  4. Whisk together the eggs (or egg substitute) with the milk, salt, and pepper in a bowl.
  5. Pour the egg mixture evenly over the kielbasa and vegetable mixture in the skillet.
  6. Reduce heat to low, cover the skillet, and cook until the eggs are set but still slightly moist, about 8-10 minutes.
  7. If using cheese, sprinkle it over the top during the last 2 minutes of cooking.
  8. Serve immediately with rye swirl bread, butter, and prepared horseradish. Enjoy!
