Ingredients
  

For the Sheet Pan Hash Browns

  • 20 ounces shredded hash browns thawed if frozen
  • ½ teaspoon kosher salt
  • ½ teaspoon smoked paprika
  • ½ teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • Black pepper to taste
  • Olive oil or avocado oil cooking spray

For the Turkey Taco Meat

  • 1 pound lean ground turkey
  • 2 tablespoons taco seasoning
  • 8 ounces tomato sauce
  • ½ cup water
  • Salt and black pepper to taste
  • Olive oil or avocado oil cooking spray

For Homemade Taco Seasoning, Optional

  • 2 teaspoons chili powder
  • 1 teaspoon ground cumin
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt
  • ½ teaspoon dried oregano
  • ½ teaspoon smoked paprika
  • For the Scrambled Eggs
  • 10 large eggs
  • Salt to taste
  • Black pepper to taste
  • Olive oil or avocado oil cooking spray

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Line an extra-large rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper and generously coat it with cooking spray. If you don't have a large enough pan, use two baking sheets.
  • Spread the shredded hash browns over the prepared pan. Add the olive oil, garlic powder, smoked paprika, kosher salt, and a few grinds of black pepper.
  • Toss thoroughly until evenly seasoned, then spread the potatoes into a thin, even layer.
  • Bake for approximately 26–27 minutes, rotating the pan halfway through, until the bottoms and edges are crisp and golden. Set aside.
  • While the potatoes bake, heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and lightly coat it with cooking spray.
  • Add the ground turkey and season lightly with salt and pepper. Cook while breaking it into small pieces with a spatula until completely cooked through.
  • Add 2 tablespoons of taco seasoning. Stir and cook for about 1 minute to toast the spices.
  • Pour in the tomato sauce and water. Stir well, bring to a gentle boil, then reduce to a simmer and cook for approximately 5 minutes.
  • For the scrambled eggs, crack the eggs into a large bowl. Season with salt and black pepper and whisk thoroughly.
  • Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium heat and coat it generously with cooking spray. Reduce the heat to low before adding the eggs.
  • Pour in the beaten eggs. Using a rubber spatula, gently push and fold them around the pan as they begin to set.
  • Continue cooking slowly for up to 5 minutes, or until the eggs are softly scrambled and fully cooked.
  • To assemble each Breakfast Burrito Bowl, add approximately ½ cup crispy hash browns, a heaping ½ cup turkey taco meat, and about ½ cup scrambled eggs.
  • Serve immediately with your preferred toppings, or allow the components to cool before portioning them into meal-prep containers.

Notes

Lean ground chicken can replace the turkey if preferred. Ground beef is another hearty option.
For extra protein, add additional egg whites to the whole eggs before scrambling.
If using store-bought taco seasoning, check the ingredients to make sure it meets your dietary preferences. The included homemade mixture is a simple alternative.
For toppings, try shredded cheese, salsa, avocado, pico de gallo, fresh cilantro, green onions, jalapeños, Greek yogurt, or sour cream.
