Ingredients
Scale
Vegetables
- 2 lb russet potatoes, chopped into 1/2 inch cubes
- 1–2 large red bell peppers, seeded and chopped into 1/2 inch cubes
- 1 large onion, peeled and chopped into 1/2 inch cubes
Protein & Dairy
- 1 lb sausages (chorizo, smoked, wild Italian, or any favorite), sliced
- 12 large eggs
- 1 cup cheddar cheese (or any cheese of your choice)
Seasonings & Oils
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- Sea salt and black pepper, to taste
- 2–3 tablespoons olive oil (or avocado oil)
- 2 tablespoons chives, finely chopped
Instructions
- Preheat the oven: Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper to prepare for roasting.
- Prep baking sheet with ingredients: On one large baking sheet, combine the diced potatoes, sliced sausages, chopped bell peppers, and chopped onion in an even layer.
- Season the mixture: Drizzle olive oil over the ingredients, then sprinkle with paprika, onion powder, garlic powder, sea salt, and black pepper. Toss everything well so all pieces are evenly coated with oil and seasonings.
- Divide and roast: Spread the mixture evenly on the sheet, then transfer half the contents to the second baking sheet to ensure proper roasting rather than steaming. Roast both sheets in the oven for 40 to 45 minutes, stirring halfway through, until potatoes are tender and golden brown.
- Scramble the eggs: While the vegetables and sausage roast, crack all eggs into a bowl and season with salt and pepper. Whisk until smooth. Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a skillet over medium heat, then pour in the eggs. Gently scramble them until just set but still soft and creamy.
- Assemble breakfast bowls: Divide the roasted sausage and vegetable mixture evenly into 4 bowls. Top with scrambled eggs, sprinkle with cheddar cheese and chopped chives. Serve warm and enjoy your nutritious breakfast bowls!
