How to Make Healthy Breakfast Bowls
Step 1: Prepare the Sausage Patties
In a mixing bowl, combine ground turkey (or your preferred protein) with garlic powder, onion powder, dried thyme, paprika, salt, and pepper. Mix well and shape into 8 small patties.
Step 2: Cook the Patties
Heat a little olive or avocado oil in a skillet over medium heat. Cook the patties for about 5-6 minutes per side until golden brown and fully cooked. Set aside.
Step 3: Cook the Eggs
Using the same skillet, fry the eggs to your preferred doneness—whether that’s sunny-side up, over-easy, or scrambled. Lightly season with salt and pepper.
Step 4: Assemble Your Bowl
Start with a base of cooked quinoa or brown rice. Add a handful of sautéed spinach or kale, place two sausage patties on top, and finish with a fried egg.
Step 5: Garnish & Serve
Top your bowl with sliced avocado and fresh herbs for extra flavor. Serve warm and enjoy!
