Description

These high-protein breakfast bowls are your new morning MVP — warm, hearty, and endlessly customizable. Loaded with creamy scrambled eggs, crispy bacon, cheese, veggies, and topped with avocado and a dollop of Greek yogurt, they’re perfect for meal prep or weekend brunch. Make them once, eat them all week.


Ingredients

Scale

2 tablespoons butter

12 eggs

6 slices bacon, chopped

1 cup shredded cheese (cheddar, pepper jack, or your choice)

½ cup chopped tomatoes

4 green onions, thinly sliced

¼ cup fresh cilantro, chopped

12 small avocados, sliced

Salt and pepper, to taste

4 hash brown patties (optional — bake or air fry until crisp)

4 tablespoons Greek yogurt or sour cream

Optional Twists:

Add sautéed spinach, mushrooms, or bell peppers

Swap bacon for turkey sausage or smoked tofu

Top with a drizzle of salsa, sriracha, or chimichurri


Instructions

In a skillet, cook chopped bacon until crispy. Remove and set aside.

In a separate pan, melt butter and scramble the eggs gently over medium-low heat. Season with salt and pepper.

Stir in shredded cheese just before the eggs finish cooking so it melts slightly.

Prep your bowls: divide scrambled eggs, bacon, tomatoes, green onions, and cilantro into six containers.

Top with avocado slices, a spoonful of Greek yogurt, and hash brown patties (if using).

Add salsa or hot sauce if desired. Store in fridge for up to 4 days.
