Turkey and Egg Skillet
Turkey and Egg Skillet

This hearty breakfast skillet delivers the perfect balance of protein and micronutrients to kickstart your day. Juicy turkey, tender spinach, and perfectly cooked eggs come together in one pan for a warm, savory, and satisfying breakfast. It’s quick to make, keeps you full for hours, and supports steady blood sugar, perfect for those on a semaglutide journey who want flavor without the carb crash.

Ingredients:
  • 2 large eggs

  • 100g (3.5 oz) lean ground turkey or turkey sausage (crumbled)

  • 1 cup fresh spinach (roughly chopped)

  • 1 tbsp onion, finely diced

  • 1 tsp olive oil or avocado oil

  • Salt & pepper to taste

  • Optional: sprinkle of smoked paprika or chili flakes

Instructions:
  1. Heat olive oil in a medium skillet over medium heat.

  2. Add the onion and cook for 1–2 minutes until softened.

  3. Add the ground turkey, season with salt, pepper, and paprika. Cook until browned (about 4–5 minutes).

  4. Stir in spinach and cook until wilted.

  5. Create two small wells in the pan and crack an egg into each.

  6. Cover the skillet and cook until eggs are done to your liking (soft yolks take ~3 minutes).

  7. Serve hot straight from the skillet or plate with extra herbs on top.

Wellness Tip:

A breakfast rich in protein and healthy fats helps reduce cravings later in the day, crucial for maintaining steady energy and appetite control while on semaglutide. Spinach adds iron, folate, and vitamin C to support metabolism and immune health.
