Kickstart your day with this nourishing and protein-packed breakfast burrito bowl featuring scrambled eggs, turkey sausage, roasted sweet potatoes, and black beans.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 8 eggs or 4 eggs + 1 cup egg whites
  • 1 cup cooked turkey sausage or ground turkey
  • 2 cups roasted sweet or baby potatoes
  • 1 cup canned black beans, rinsed
  • 1/2 cup chopped bell peppers
  • 1/2 cup chopped onion
  • 1/2 cup shredded cheddar or pepper jack cheese
  • 1/2 cup salsa or pico de gallo
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • Salt, pepper, paprika to taste
  • Optional: avocado, cilantro, lime, jalapeños

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F.
  2. Chop the sweet potatoes and toss them with olive oil, salt, pepper, and paprika.
  3. Spread the seasoned sweet potatoes on a baking sheet and roast for about 25 minutes, or until golden and tender.
  4. In a skillet over medium heat, cook the turkey sausage until browned. Remove it from the skillet and set aside.
  5. Using the same skillet, sauté the chopped bell peppers and onions until softened.
  6. Scramble the eggs in a non-stick pan until just set for a fluffy texture.
  7. In meal prep containers, assemble equal portions of roasted potatoes, black beans, sausage, sautéed veggies, and scrambled eggs.
  8. Top each bowl with your choice of salsa or pico de gallo.
  9. Allow the bowls to cool before sealing them up. Store them in the fridge for up to four days.

Notes

For perfectly fluffy scrambled eggs, remove them from heat just before they are completely set; they will continue cooking in their residual heat. Use pre-cooked turkey sausage or frozen roasted sweet potatoes to streamline the process.
