⭐ How to Make Breakfast-for-Dinner Egg & Turkey Sausage Bowls
1. Cook the Sweet Potatoes
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
Add diced sweet potatoes and season with paprika, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper.
Cook for 8–10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until potatoes are tender inside and lightly golden on the outside.
2. Add the Turkey Sausage
Add turkey sausage to the skillet with the sweet potatoes.
Cook for 4–5 minutes, stirring, until the sausage is browned and heated through.
3. Cook the Eggs
Push the sausage and potato mixture to one side of the pan.
Crack eggs into the empty space.
Cook eggs to your preferred doneness (sunny-side, over-easy, or scrambled).
4. Add Spinach (Optional)
If using spinach, add it to the pan during the last minute of cooking.
Stir gently until just wilted.
5. Serve
Divide into bowls, making sure each portion gets eggs, sausage, and sweet potatoes.
Serve immediately while hot.
