11 Breakfast Skillet Recipes for People Who Hate Cleaning
Picture this: It’s Saturday morning. You're half asleep and starving. The last thing you want to do is make an elaborate meal that involves six bowls, three pans, and all your utensils. Regardless of whether you're hungover, all you want is a simple breakfast recipe that you can make in one skillet and clean up quickly. Your action-packed Saturday awaits! Or... your bed and Netflix await! Either way, making an entire breakfast in one skillet is the way to go. But what's the best skillet recipe that will let you live your life without worrying about loads of dishes?
I know what you’re thinking: I’ll make an egg or two and call it a day. Sure, that only takes one skillet. But it’s Saturday, remember? You can have a single egg any day of the week. Treat yourself to a big one-pan breakfast that's delicious and will provide leftovers so you can be lazy on Sunday too. Breakfast should be the one meal of the day that you look forward to—it's the most important one, after all.
