# Expert Advice:
01 -
- Everything cooks on one baking sheet and one skillet, so cleanup is surprisingly manageable for such a hearty meal
- The crispy potatoes and runny eggs create this perfect texture combo that hits every craving spot
- You can prep the toppings in advance and just assemble bowls in the morning
02 -
- Dense potato cubes will steam instead of roast, so spread them out without overcrowding the baking sheet
- The eggs keep cooking after you take them off the heat, so pull them earlier than you think you should
03 -
- Soak the diced potatoes in cold water for 10 minutes before roasting to remove excess starch for extra crunch
- Cook the bacon ahead of time and reheat it gently while you scramble the eggs
