Recipe 1: Ultimate Breakfast Skillet
This one-pan wonder is loaded with crispy potatoes, charred vegetables, smoky sausage, and gooey cheese—all topped with perfectly cooked eggs. It’s a hearty start to Dad’s day and comes together quickly, especially with a few smart kitchen gadgets.
Ingredients
Instructions
- Preheat your Mueller Pro-Series 10-in-1, 8 Blade Vegetable Chopper to make quick work of dicing potatoes, pepper, and onion.
- Heat a drizzle of olive oil in a SENSARTE Nonstick Frying Pan Skillet, 9.5 Inch over medium-high. Add potatoes and cook, stirring occasionally, until golden and crisp (about 8–10 minutes).
- Add chopped pepper and onion; continue to cook until softened, 3–4 minutes. Stir in sausage slices and cook until browned.
- Reduce heat and create four wells in the hash. Crack an egg into each well and sprinkle with shredded cheese. Cover and cook 2–3 minutes or until eggs are set to your liking.
- Season with salt, pepper, and a sprinkle of parsley. Serve straight from the skillet for a rustic, dad-approved breakfast.
Recipe 2: Sunrise Breakfast Burritos
Loaded with soft scrambled eggs, sausage, cheese, and fresh salsa, these burritos are a handheld favorite. Making a batch in advance means Dad can enjoy his breakfast at the table—or on the go for a family adventure.
Ingredients
Instructions
- Whisk eggs and milk until smooth. Pour into a heated, buttered skillet (SENSARTE Nonstick Frying Pan makes cleanup a cinch) and scramble gently to soft, fluffy curds. Season with salt and pepper.
- Lay out tortillas. Divide eggs, sausage or bacon, cheese, salsa, and avocado among them.
- Fold the bottom of each tortilla up, then roll tightly. For extra toasty burritos, heat them in a dry skillet, seam side down, for a minute or two.
- To save time on slicing veggies for salsa, use the Mueller Pro-Series Vegetable Chopper.
- Serve with hot sauce or extra salsa on the side.
Recipe 3: Dad’s Favorite Power Smoothie
If breakfast on the lighter side appeals, whip up a powerhouse smoothie packed with fruits, yogurt, and a hit of protein. This option pairs perfectly with a classic breakfast or stands strong on its own.
Ingredients
Instructions
- Add all ingredients to a Ninja BL610 Professional 72 Oz Countertop Blender.

- Garnish with extra berries or a sprinkle of granola if desired.
