A few years ago, I saw a recipe for sheet-pan eggs that included prosciutto and thyme (two things that I never have in my fridge!). I loved the idea behind a super-easy homemade meal that could feed a crowd and required just one dish to be washed. But I felt like calling for specific ingredients I didn’t typically have on hand just defeated the purpose.
That was the inspiration behind my no-recipe sheet-pan breakfast. After sharing it on social media, hundreds of people have asked me for the “no-recipe” formula for the dish — and I have all the details here for you!
This is my favorite breakfast for cooler mornings because it’s warm, it tastes gourmet and it only takes me 15 minutes to make.
