Description

Easy High Protein Breakfast Bowls combine eggs, lean turkey, grains, and fresh veggies into a hearty, customizable, and delicious breakfast that keeps you full and satisfied.


Ingredients

  • 2 large eggs
  • 1/2 cup cooked lean turkey or chicken breast, shredded or diced
  • 1/2 cup cooked quinoa or brown rice
  • 1/4 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
  • 1/2 cup baby spinach
  • 1/4 avocado, sliced
  • 2 tbsp crumbled feta or shredded cheese
  • 1 tbsp hot sauce or salsa (optional)
  • Salt and black pepper, to taste


Instructions

  1. Cook quinoa or brown rice according to package instructions or use leftovers. Keep warm.
  2. Cook turkey or chicken in a skillet with a bit of oil, salt, and pepper until heated through and lightly seared.
  3. Prepare eggs in your preferred style (scrambled, fried, or poached). Season lightly.
  4. In a large bowl, layer warm grains, spinach, and turkey or chicken.
  5. Top with cherry tomatoes, avocado slices, and eggs.
  6. Sprinkle with cheese, add hot sauce or salsa if using, and season with salt and pepper to taste.

Notes

  • Use tofu or black beans for a vegetarian version.
  • Substitute farro, couscous, or cauliflower rice as alternative grain bases.
  • Toss avocado in lemon or lime juice to prevent browning if prepping ahead.
  • Store grains and protein separately for easy assembly throughout the week.
  • Microwave grains and protein to reheat; add fresh toppings and eggs just before serving.
