Ingredients
Scale
Vegetables
- 5 oz greens (such as baby spinach)
- 1 cup bell peppers, sliced
- 1 clove garlic, crushed
Protein
- 1/2 pound breakfast sausage
- 6 eggs
Others
- 1 tablespoon olive oil (divided for cooking two dishes)
- 2 tablespoons heavy cream
Instructions
- Prepare the vegetables: Heat half of the olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the crushed garlic and stir for about 30 seconds until fragrant. Add the baby spinach and sliced bell peppers, sautéing until the greens wilt and the peppers soften, about 3-4 minutes. Remove from skillet and set aside.
- Cook the breakfast sausage: In the same skillet, add the remaining olive oil if needed, then crumble in the breakfast sausage. Cook over medium heat until browned and cooked through, about 7-8 minutes, stirring occasionally. Remove and set aside with vegetables.
- Scramble the eggs: In a bowl, whisk together the eggs and heavy cream until fully combined. Pour the mixture into the skillet over low-medium heat and gently scramble the eggs, stirring slowly until just set and fluffy, about 4-5 minutes.
- Assemble the bowl: Combine the cooked sausage and vegetables back into the skillet or a bowl, then add the scrambled eggs on top. Mix gently or layer as desired for serving. Serve warm and enjoy a filling keto-friendly breakfast bowl.
Notes
- You can substitute the greens with kale or Swiss chard for a different flavor.
- For a spicier option, add chili flakes or a dash of hot sauce to the eggs.
- Make sure to use full-fat heavy cream to maintain the keto macros.
- This recipe can be easily doubled for meal prep or larger servings.
- Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days and reheated gently on the stovetop or microwave.
