Loaded Breakfast Potato Stacks are a hearty and delicious way to start your day. They're made with thinly sliced potatoes that are roasted until golden brown and crispy, then topped with a flavorful mixture of cheese, onions, peppers, and sun-dried tomatoes. These stacks are perfect for a weekend brunch or a weekday breakfast on the go.
The idea for Loaded Breakfast Potato Stacks came to me one morning when I was looking for a way to use up some leftover roasted potatoes. I had some cheese, onions, and peppers in the fridge, so I decided to throw them all together in a skillet. The result was a delicious and satisfying breakfast that I've been making ever since.

1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese
1/4 cup chopped red onion
1/4 cup chopped green bell pepper
1/4 cup chopped sun-dried tomatoes
Instructions
1. Preheat oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).
2. Slice the potatoes into thin slices using a mandoline or a sharp knife.
3. In a large bowl, toss the potatoes with the olive oil, salt and pepper.
4. Spread the potatoes in a single layer on a baking sheet.
5. Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the potatoes are golden brown and crispy.

Why It Works
The thinly sliced potatoes cook quickly and evenly in the oven, resulting in a crispy exterior and a tender interior.
Roasting the potatoes brings out their natural sweetness and caramelizes the edges.
The combination of cheese, onions, peppers, and sun-dried tomatoes adds a variety of flavors and textures.
The stacks are easy to make and can be customized to your liking.
