A hearty breakfast bowl packed with protein from ground turkey and eggs, topped with fluffy potatoes and cottage cheese.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil – divided
  • 1/2 lb ground turkey
  • 1.5 tablespoons taco seasoning
  • Salt and pepper – to taste
  • 34 large eggs
  • 1/4 cup cottage cheese – 2%-4%
  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • 1 cup shredded potatoes – like Simply Potatoes
  • Optional toppings – chopped fresh herbs, avocado, Mexican shredded cheese, chopped tomatoes or salsa

Instructions

  1. Heat a skillet to medium heat on the stovetop with 1/2 tablespoon olive oil. Add the ground turkey and break it up, seasoning with taco seasoning, and cook until no longer pink, about 5-7 minutes.
  2. Crack the eggs into a medium-sized bowl, add the cottage cheese and whisk until combined. Heat a new skillet to medium-low heat with 1 pat of butter, then pour in the egg mixture and fold until firm and fluffy, about 3-4 minutes.
  3. Wipe out the pan used for the turkey, heat again with remaining olive oil, then add shredded potatoes and cook press down until crispy, about 4-5 minutes on each side.
  4. Divide the eggs, turkey, and crispy potatoes between two bowls and top with desired ingredients.

Notes

Great for customizing with left-over vegetables or additional toppings. Store any leftovers in airtight containers in the fridge for 2-3 days.
