The breakfast skillet is a classic American dish that has been around for centuries. It's typically made with eggs, meat, and potatoes, but this recipe takes a healthier approach by using a variety of vegetables instead. I first came up with this recipe when I was looking for a way to use up some leftover vegetables. I had some chopped onions, green bell peppers, and red bell peppers in the fridge, and I thought they would be perfect for a breakfast skillet. I added some black beans and corn for protein and fiber, and topped it all off with shredded cheddar cheese. The result was a delicious and satisfying breakfast that was also packed with nutrients.
