Method
 

Breakfast Potatoes:
  1. Clean the potatoes and cut them into smaller pieces.
  2. Add the chopped potatoes to a pot of water.
  3. On medium high to high heat, allow the pot of water to come to a boil.
  4. Cover with a lid & allow the potatoes to cook for 5 minutes.
  5. Check the tenderness of the potatoes with a fork.
  6. Once the potatoes are firm & tender (not too soft or mushy), drain the potatoes.
  7. In a skillet on medium high heat, add some olive oil & butter.
  8. Once the butter has melted add the parboiled potatoes.
  9. Add the dry seasonings (Note: season the potatoes lightly with the dry seasonings. Adjust according to your taste buds.)
  10. Add the fresh garlic & chopped onion, sauté for 2 minutes.
  11. Once the potatoes are done, set aside.
Garlic Butter Steak:
  1. Clean & prep the steaks. Pat dry with a paper towel.
  2. Season the steaks to your liking.
  3. Seasoning Options - Pick 1: 1). salt & pepper or 2). steakhouse seasoning or 3). Garlic pepper seasoning, garlic powder, onion powder, & steakhouse seasoning.
  4. On medium high heat, add some olive oil to a skillet and allow it to get hot.
  5. Once the oil is hot, add the steaks to the skillet.
  6. Allow the steaks to cook a few minutes on one side, then flip over and cook the other side.
  7. Note: I like to flip the steaks over every few minutes continuously throughout the cooking time. Why? - so that the steaks cook evenly.
  8. When the steaks are almost done (based on your preference)- add the butter, fresh garlic & thyme. Allow the garlic & thyme to cook for about a minute or two.
  9. Once the butter has melted, baste the steaks at least twice with the butter.
  10. Turn the stove off, & allow the steaks to rest a few minutes, before slicing into smaller pieces.
Cheesy Scrambled Eggs:
  1. For the eggs, you can cook them based on your personal preference. I like my eggs scrambled.
  2. Crack the eggs into a bowl. Add a splash of half & half or milk.
  3. Whisk the eggs with a fork.
  4. On medium high heat, melt some butter (Alternative: cooking spray) then add your eggs.
  5. Allow the eggs to cook, once the eggs are almost done add cheese on top and allow it to melt.
  6. Optional: season with salt and pepper
