Season the cubed potatoes: Transfer diced potatoes into a mixing bowl, or, in my case, I used a skillet I had in the RV. Sprinkle potatoes with 1 1/2 tsp garlic salt, 1 1/2 tsp paprika, and 1 tsp of ground black pepper. Drizzle with 2 Tbsp oil and bring over to the griddle.

Cook breakfast potatoes outdoors: To the griddle, add 2 Tbsp of cooking oil and the seasoned breakfast potatoes. Cook for 8 minutes without turning. Then flip them and cook them for 10-15 minutes, flipping them every 5 minutes. They should be crisp and golden brown.

Serve breakfast potatoes: Transfer potatoes to a skillet or dish and place them on the picnic table with paper plates. Serve with fried bacon*, eggs, and your favorite condiments. Enjoy!
