Description

A high-protein breakfast or lunch bowl featuring lean ground turkey, scrambled eggs, and vibrant vegetables, designed to keep you energized throughout the day.


Ingredients

  • 1 lb lean ground turkey
  • 4 large eggs
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1/2 cup chopped onion
  • 1/2 cup chopped bell pepper (any color)
  • 1/2 cup chopped zucchini
  • 1/4 cup black beans, rinsed and drained
  • 1/4 cup corn, fresh or frozen
  • 1/4 cup salsa
  • 1/4 cup shredded cheese (cheddar, Monterey Jack, or a blend)
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Optional toppings: avocado, hot sauce, cilantro


Instructions

  1. Cook the ground turkey in a skillet over medium-high heat, breaking it up with a spoon, until browned. Drain off any excess fat. Season with salt and pepper. Remove turkey from the skillet and set aside.
  2. In the same skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add chopped onion, bell pepper, and zucchini. Sauté until vegetables are tender, about 5-7 minutes.
  3. While the vegetables are cooking, whisk the eggs in a bowl with a pinch of salt and pepper. Pour the eggs into the skillet with the vegetables and scramble until cooked through.
  4. Add the cooked ground turkey, black beans, and corn to the skillet with the scrambled eggs and vegetables. Stir to combine and heat through.
  5. Divide the mixture into serving bowls. Top each bowl with salsa and shredded cheese.
  6. Add any optional toppings like avocado, hot sauce, or cilantro. Serve immediately.

Notes

  • For a vegetarian option, substitute the ground turkey with crumbled tofu or extra beans.
  • Feel free to customize the vegetables based on what you have on hand. Spinach, mushrooms, or sweet potatoes are great additions.
  • Prepare components ahead of time for quick assembly during busy mornings.
  • Adjust seasoning to your preference.
