Description

A high-protein breakfast bowl packed with scrambled eggs, turkey sausage, cottage cheese, and fresh vegetables, perfect for fueling your morning with sustained energy.


Ingredients

  • 3 large eggs
  • 2 large egg whites
  • 2 turkey sausage links, sliced
  • 1/2 cup low-fat cottage cheese
  • 1/4 avocado, sliced
  • 1/2 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
  • 1/2 cup spinach, sautéed

  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • 1 tbsp fresh herbs (optional, for garnish)


Instructions

  1. Heat olive oil in a nonstick skillet over medium heat.
  2. Add turkey sausage slices and cook until browned, about 4 minutes. Remove and set aside.

Notes
