Description
A hearty and protein-packed breakfast meal prep idea featuring roasted baby potatoes, scrambled eggs, and savory turkey sausage. Perfect for busy mornings and easy to customize with your favorite toppings.
Ingredients
1.5 lbs baby potatoes, quartered
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika
Salt and pepper to taste
1 lb ground turkey sausage
8 large eggs
2 tablespoons milk (dairy or non-dairy)
1/2 tablespoon butter or oil for scrambling
Optional toppings: shredded cheese, avocado, hot sauce, fresh herbs
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C).
- Toss the quartered baby potatoes with olive oil, garlic powder, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper.
- Spread the potatoes on a baking sheet and roast for 25–30 minutes, flipping once halfway through, until golden and crispy.
- While potatoes roast, brown the ground turkey sausage in a skillet over medium heat for about 8–10 minutes, breaking it up as it cooks. Set aside once fully cooked.
- In a bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, and a pinch of salt.
- Heat butter or oil in a nonstick skillet over medium-low heat and scramble the eggs until just set. Remove from heat promptly.
- Divide the roasted potatoes, scrambled eggs, and cooked sausage evenly into 4–5 meal prep containers.
- Let the contents cool, then seal and refrigerate. Reheat in the microwave when ready to eat, and add desired toppings.
Notes
Swap turkey sausage with chicken sausage or plant-based crumbles for variety.
Use sweet potatoes for a naturally sweet twist.
Add sautéed spinach, bell peppers, or mushrooms for extra veggies.
Make it dairy-free by using non-dairy milk and cheese alternatives.
Top with hot sauce or jalapeños for a spicy kick.
Reheat potatoes in the oven or air fryer for extra crispiness.
