Description

A hearty Tex-Mex breakfast bowl filled with spicy ground chicken, roasted potatoes, and fluffy scrambled eggs, perfect for meal prepping or busy mornings.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 lb ground chicken
  • 2 large eggs
  • 2 cups roasted potatoes, diced
  • 1 cup bell peppers, diced
  • 1 cup onions, diced
  • 1 teaspoon chili powder
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Olive oil for cooking

Instructions

  1. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add diced onions and bell peppers, cooking until softened—about 5 minutes.
  2. Add ground chicken, breaking it apart with a spatula, cooking until no longer pink—approximately 5-7 minutes. Stir in chili powder, garlic powder, salt, and pepper.
  3. Scramble the eggs in a separate bowl with a pinch of salt, cooking in a non-stick skillet until just set—about 3 minutes.
  4. Fold the chicken mixture into the scrambled eggs, then add roasted potatoes, allowing flavors to meld.
  5. Serve warm or divide into eight bowls for meal prep and let cool before storing in the freezer.
