Step-by-Step Instructions
- Preheat Your Skillet: Heat a large, heavy skillet over medium heat.
- Cook the Bacon: Add the smoked bacon slices to the skillet and cook until crispy and golden. Remove and set aside, leaving the bacon drippings in the pan.
Photo Idea: Crispy bacon sizzling in the skillet. - Sauté the Vegetables: n the same skillet, add the chopped yellow onion and diced red and green bell peppers. Sauté for 3–4 minutes until they begin to soften.

- Season & Wilt the Spinach: Sprinkle in the smoked paprika, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Toss in the baby spinach and cook until just wilted (about 1 minute).

- Cook the Eggs: Cover the skillet and cook for 4–5 minutes, or until the eggs reach your preferred level of doneness—from soft and runny to fully set.

Frequently Asked Questions
