Ingredients for Healthy Breakfast Burrito Bowls

A high-protein burrito bowl needs only a few staples. Below are the ingredients used to build my favorite version of this bowl:

Ingredients for Breakfast Burrito Bowls with Chorizo, Eggs, and Veggies GF DF - Olivia Adriance
  • Breakfast Sausage: Spicy chorizo adds bold flavor, but use your preferred breakfast sausage.
  • Bone Broth: A splash of bone broth helps finish cooking the sausage and adds depth. I used Epic chicken bone broth for this recipe.
  • Vegetables: Use roasted vegetables you already have or roast sweet potato and bell pepper. Adding greens like spinach or sautéed kale increases the nutrient density.

  • Beans: Black beans supply fiber and plant-based protein.
  • Eggs: I use two eggs per person for roughly 12 grams of protein each; Vital Farms eggs were used here.
  • Garnishes: Chopped cilantro, diced red onion, and sliced jalapeño finish the bowl with brightness and heat.

How to Make Breakfast Burrito Bowls

Preheat the oven to 425°F.

Cut the sweet potato into 1/2-inch pieces and the bell pepper into 1-inch pieces. Toss the vegetables with olive oil, salt, and pepper, then roast for 25 minutes, turning once halfway through.

While the vegetables roast, form the ground chorizo or sausage into balls slightly smaller than a golf ball.

Heat a drizzle of olive oil in a skillet over medium-high and add the sausage balls in a single layer. Sear for 3 minutes, flip, and sear another 3 minutes. Continue turning so three sides get a good sear.

Reduce heat to medium-low and add 1/4 cup bone broth, stirring to coat the sausage. Cover and cook for 5 minutes so the sausage finishes cooking and absorbs the broth. Add more broth if the pan dries out.

Meanwhile, warm the black beans in a small pot over medium-low and season with about 1/2 teaspoon salt and some pepper.

When the sausage is cooked, remove the pan from the heat for 30 seconds, then lower the heat to low. Drizzle a bit more olive oil, crack the eggs into the pan, and cover. The remaining juices from the sausage and broth will flavor the eggs.

Cook the eggs 2 to 2 1/2 minutes, until the whites are set but the yolks remain runny. To serve, divide the roasted vegetables between two bowls, add the sausage and black beans, then top each bowl with two eggs. Garnish with cilantro, diced red onion, and jalapeño. Serve and enjoy!

Sausage and eggs are a classic combo, but this protein-rich bowl is satisfying any time of day. Leftover roasted vegetables make the recipe even quicker.

Ingredients

  • ¾ pounds ground chorizo (or your preferred breakfast sausage)
  • ¼ cup bone broth
  • 1 medium sweet potato
  • 1 red bell pepper
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 can black beans
  • 4 eggs
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • Cilantro, chopped (for garnish)
  • Red onion, diced (for garnish)
  • Jalapeño, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 425°F.
  • Cut the sweet potato into ½-inch pieces and the bell pepper into 1-inch pieces. Toss with oil, salt, and pepper. Roast for 25 minutes, flipping once halfway through.
  • Form the ground chorizo into balls slightly smaller than a golf ball.
  • Heat a drizzle of olive oil in a skillet over medium-high.
  • Place the sausage balls in a single layer and sear for 3 minutes. Flip and sear another 3 minutes, rotating so three sides are browned.
  • Lower the heat to medium-low, add 1/4 cup bone broth, and stir to coat. Cover and cook 5 minutes, adding more broth if needed.
  • While the sausage cooks, warm the black beans in a small pot over medium-low and season with about 1/2 teaspoon salt and pepper.
  • Remove the sausage pan from the heat for 30 seconds, reduce heat to low, drizzle with olive oil, crack in the eggs, and cover. The pan juices will flavor the eggs.
  • Cook the eggs 2 to 2 1/2 minutes until the whites are set and yolks remain runny.
  • Assemble: divide roasted vegetables between two bowls, add the sausage and beans, top each with two eggs, and garnish with cilantro, red onion, and jalapeño.

Notes

This recipe is highly adaptable. Swap black beans for pinto or kidney beans, or roast tomatoes and regular potatoes instead of peppers and sweet potatoes. Customize it to your taste.
