Cook: 30 min
Total: 35 min

Ingredients

Ingredients for 4 hearty servings:

  • spray olive oil
  • 3/4 cup chopped (red) bell pepper
  • 1/3 cup diced red onion
  • 12oz 93% lean ground turkey
  • Seasonings:
    • 1/2 tablespoon garlic powder
    • 1/2 tablespoon onion powder
    • 2 teaspoons oregano
    • 1 teaspoon sage
  • 4 whole eggs
  • 5 egg whites
  • 2 cups raw spinach
  • 1 cup reduced fat cheddar cheese
  • 32 veggie cauliflower tots
    • substitute:  36 sweet potato tots

Steps

Step 1

Set oven to 420F.

Step 2

Spray a nonstick skillet with olive oil and set on medium-high heat. Sauté red onion and bell pepper for 3 to 5 minutes, until the onion is brown and translucent.

Step 3

Add the ground turkey. Chop and cook it up in the skillet using a wooden or rubber spatula. While it cooks, add in the seasonings and a pinch of sea salt & pepper. Cook until the turkey is no longer visibly pink, about 5 to 7 minutes. Set aside.

Step 4

Beat eggs and egg whites together in a bowl.

Step 5

To a small baking tin – or 5×5 casserole dish (sprayed with olive oil) – add chopped spinach, a serving of the ground turkey mix and your serving of eggs. Add about 8 veggie tots (or 9 sweet potato tots) to the top, then sprinkle on about 1/4 cup cheddar. Repeat for the remaining tins.

Step 6

Bake for 25 minutes or until the egg has fully cooked.
