Ingredients
Eggs
- 2 eggs (cooked your favorite way: scrambled, sunny side up, poached, or hard-boiled)
Vegetables and Sides
- 1 cup leafy greens (baby spinach, kale, or Swiss chard)
- ½ small onion (diced)
- 2 cloves garlic (minced)
- ½ avocado (sliced)
- ¼ cup sauerkraut (such as beet sauerkraut or dill kraut)
- ½ cup roasted sweet potatoes
Protein
- 3 cooked turkey sausage links (or 2 slices cooked bacon)
Seasonings and Optional
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Optional toppings: red pepper flakes, nutritional yeast, or a drizzle of olive oil
Instructions
- Roast Sweet Potatoes: Preheat your oven to 400°F. Dice the sweet potatoes into bite-sized pieces, toss them with about 1 teaspoon of olive oil, salt, and pepper, then spread them evenly on a baking sheet. Roast for 20–25 minutes, flipping halfway through, until they are golden brown and tender.
- Cook Eggs: Prepare the eggs your preferred way. For sunny side up, heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat, crack in the eggs, and cook until the whites are set but the yolks remain runny. For soft-boiled eggs, cook the eggs in boiling water for about 6 minutes, then peel.
- Sauté Greens: Heat about 1 teaspoon of oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the diced onion and cook for 2–3 minutes until softened. Stir in the minced garlic and cook for another 30 seconds until fragrant. Add the leafy greens, season with a pinch of salt, and sauté until wilted, about 2–3 minutes.
- Assemble and Serve: Start by placing the sautéed greens and roasted sweet potatoes as the base in a bowl. Top with the cooked eggs, turkey sausage links (or bacon), sliced avocado, and a scoop of sauerkraut. Sprinkle with additional seasonings like red pepper flakes, nutritional yeast, or a drizzle of olive oil if desired. Serve immediately while warm.
