How to Make It
- Brown sausage slices in a large skillet over medium-high heat, 3–4 minutes; remove and set aside.
- Add potatoes to the same skillet in a single layer, don't stir for 4–5 minutes so they crisp.
- Add onion and bell pepper, cook 10–12 minutes, stirring occasionally, until potatoes are tender.
- Return sausage to the skillet, season, and toss everything together.
- Top with cheese and serve with dinner rolls on the side.
No-Time-For-That Tip: Don't crowd the potatoes — spread them thin so they crisp instead of steam.
