1-Preheat the oven to 425°F: Preheat the oven to 425°F. Place the diced potatoes in a single layer on a large baking sheet and drizzle with olive oil. Sprinkle with 1/2 teaspoon of kosher salt, garlic powder, smoked paprika, and black pepper to taste. Roast in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, until the potatoes are fork-tender and golden brown.
2-While they’re roasting, heat a large skillet: While they’re roasting, heat a large skillet over medium-high heat.

Turn the stove down to medium-low heat and pour in the whisked eggs and sprinkle with the remaining 1/2 teaspoon of salt and another little bit of black pepper. Allow it to cook for 1-2 minutes until the bottom starts to set then pull up the edges of the eggs and let the eggs run underneath. Sprinkle on the cheddar cheese and continue to cook for another 1-2 minutes until the cheese melts and the eggs are just barely cooked and very soft. Remove from the heat.
