Add a bit of spice to your life with this delicious and extremely filling Mexican Burrito Breakfast Bowl.
You can do a big batch of the turkey and sweet potatoes and pop them in the freezer. Then when it's time to throw it all together you only need to add the kidney beans, egg and avocado.
Recipe Turkey Chorizo
Protein: Use ground turkey, ground chicken, ground pork or crumbled extra firm tofu. Choose what you prefer! Perfect for families with different dietary preferences.
Mexican spices: Chilli powder (like ancho chili powder), smoked paprika, cumin, coriander, dried Mexican oregano (optional), granulated garlic (or 2 finely minced garlic cloves), and chipotle powder (or red pepper flakes). For smoky, spicy, earthy, bold flavor.
Vinegar: Use white, red, or apple cider vinegar for a touch of acidity that pumps up the flavour even more.
Salt: Add to taste.
Recipe for Breakfast Bowl
Sweet Potato roasted - either whole oe cut up into small pieces.
Black beans - Heat and season.
Egg - Either fried or scrambled or use tofu.
Avocado - Sliced or mashed.

Pop it all into a bowl and feel full right up until lunch. Don't be alarmed by the calories, you won't be snacking after this. This is also a well balanced, nutrient dense bowl, a good mix of lean protein, fiber, healthy fats, and micronutrients (potassium, vitamin A from sweet potato, folate from beans). I hope you love it as much as I do!
