Simple Cooking Steps
- 1
Cook Ground Beef
In a non-stick skillet, cook the lean ground beef over medium-high heat, breaking it apart with a spoon. Cook until browned and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes. Drain any excess fat.
- 2
Cook Eggs
In the same skillet (or a separate one), cook the eggs to your preference (scrambled, fried, or poached). Season with salt and pepper.
- 3
Assemble the Bowl
Once the beef and eggs are cooked, assemble your breakfast bowl. Add the cooked ground beef to a bowl.
- 4
Add Eggs and Cheese
Top the ground beef with the cooked eggs. Sprinkle the shredded cheese over the hot eggs and beef so it melts slightly.

Add Toppings & Serve
If desired, add your favorite toppings like hot sauce, salsa, or chopped green onions. Serve immediately and enjoy your protein-packed breakfast!
Breakfast Meal Prep Hero!
This breakfast bowl is fantastic for meal prepping. Cook a larger quantity of the ground beef and sautéed vegetables over the weekend. Store them in airtight containers. Each morning, all you need to do is reheat your beef and veggie mix, cook a couple of fresh eggs (or use pre-cooked scrambled eggs), and top with salsa. It's a game-changer for busy mornings when you still want a high-protein, satisfying start to your day.
