Whisk eggs with milk.After potatoes are browned (add more butter if needed), pour egg mixture on top, tipping skillet so egg is distributed to edges.

I made this on a Saturday morning for brunch — it was a great one pan meal. It works well as leftovers for lunches or whenever.
Loved this. It’s easy and versatile. I substituted cooked crumbled sausage for the bacon and added a touch of mild salsa or diced tomatoes. Great recipe!
When setting the eggs, I cover with a lid. [This causes the eggs to "puff" a little.] Sometimes I use chopped chile peppers or any combination of veggies that are in season
