Ultimate Protein-Packed Turkey Scramble

Ingredients

  • 6 oz ground turkey
  • 3 large eggs

  • 1/4 cup crumbled feta cheese

Recipe

A hearty and delicious turkey scramble packed with protein and fresh ingredients, perfect for a filling breakfast or quick dinner.

⏱️ Cooking Time: 20 minutes | 🍽️ Servings: 1

Instructions

  1. 1.
    Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and add the ground turkey. Cook for about 5 minutes, breaking it apart with a spatula, until browned and cooked through. Make sure there are no pink bits visible, which indicates the turkey is properly cooked.
  2. 2.
    While the turkey cooks, crack the eggs into a bowl and whisk until the yolks and whites are fully combined. This ensures a uniform scramble and prevents any egg from cooking unevenly.
  3. 3.
    Once the turkey is done, push it to one side of the skillet. Pour the eggs into the other side. Allow them to set slightly around the edges, then gently stir, pulling the cooked edges towards the center. Folding in this manner creates soft curds without overcooking.
  4. 4.
    Add the baby spinach to the skillet and fold it into the eggs and turkey. Spinach wilts quickly, so cook just until it turns bright green and softens slightly, which takes about 1-2 minutes.
  5. 5.
    Sprinkle the diced bell pepper and feta cheese evenly over the mixture. Stir gently to combine, allowing the feta to melt slightly and the peppers to heat through, adding a touch of crunch and creaminess. Serve immediately while everything is hot and flavorful.
