Ingredients
Scale
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1/2 lb ground turkey
- 1.5 tablespoons taco seasoning
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 3-4 large eggs
- 1/4 cup cottage cheese (2%-4%)
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 1 cup shredded potatoes
- Optional toppings: chopped fresh herbs (chives or parsley), avocado, Mexican shredded cheese, chopped tomatoes, or salsa
Instructions
- Cook the turkey: Heat a skillet over medium heat and add 1/2 tablespoon of olive oil. Add the ground turkey, breaking it apart with a spatula. Sprinkle in the taco seasoning and cook until the meat is no longer pink, then season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Whisk the eggs: In a medium bowl, crack the eggs and mix in the cottage cheese. Season with salt and pepper, and whisk until smooth.
- Prepare the eggs: In another skillet, melt the butter over medium-low heat. Pour the egg mixture into the skillet and cook gently, stirring occasionally, until the eggs are firm and fluffy. Remove from heat and set aside.
- Sauté the potatoes: Wipe the turkey skillet clean and add the remaining olive oil. Squeeze any excess moisture from the shredded potatoes and season with salt and pepper. Cook them in the skillet for 4-5 minutes or until golden brown, flipping to crisp all sides.
- Assemble the bowl: Divide the cooked turkey, scrambled eggs, and crispy potatoes into bowls. Top with your favorite extras and enjoy!
Notes
To keep the potatoes crispy, squeeze out as much moisture as possible before cooking. You can also use pre-cooked turkey or breakfast sausage for a quick protein boost.
