Ingredients

  • ½ cup coarsely shredded zucchini

  • 1 slice lower-sodium, lower-fat bacon, chopped

  • 3/4 cup leftover Packet-Grilled Potatoes

  • 1 egg

  • Pinch of salt

  • Pinch of ground pepper

Directions

  1. Wrap zucchini in a double layer of paper towels and blot dry. Cook bacon in an 8-inch nonstick skillet over medium heat until crisp. Drain the bacon on paper towels, reserving drippings in the pan.

  2. Add the zucchini and potatoes to the reserved drippings. Cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until heated through, 1 to 2 minutes. Stir in bacon. Transfer the mixture to a plate.

  3. Reduce heat to medium-low. Break egg into the pan; sprinkle with salt and pepper. Cook until the egg white is set and the yolk starts to thicken, 3 to 4 minutes. Top the potato mixture with the egg.

Nutrition information is calculated by a registered dietitian using an ingredient database but should be considered an estimate.

* Daily Values (DVs) are the recommended amounts of nutrients to consume each day. Percent Daily Value (%DV) found on nutrition labels tells you how much a serving of a particular food or recipe contributes to each of those total recommended amounts. Per the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), the daily value is based on a standard 2,000 calorie diet. Depending on your calorie needs or if you have a health condition, you may need more or less of particular nutrients. (For example, it’s recommended that people following a heart-healthy diet eat less sodium on a daily basis compared to those following a standard diet.)
