Turkey and Carrot Breakfast Hash

March 13, 2024

If you’re looking for a savory, satisfying breakfast that’s both healthy and delicious, this turkey and carrot breakfast hash has you covered. It’s the kind of meal that fuels your day while still delivering big on flavor and comfort.

This hash combines lean ground turkey with sweet carrots, onions, and earthy potatoes, all sautéed together in one skillet. It’s a great way to pack in protein and veggies early in the day, and it’s flexible enough to adjust based on what you have on hand. The natural sweetness of the carrots pairs beautifully with the savory turkey and adds a pop of color to the plate.

To make it, start by browning ground turkey in a bit of olive oil until fully cooked. Season with salt, pepper, and a pinch of smoked paprika or cumin for extra depth. Remove the turkey from the pan and set it aside while you sauté chopped onions, diced potatoes, and shredded or finely chopped carrots in the same skillet. Let them cook until golden and tender, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking.

Once the veggies are nicely caramelized, return the turkey to the pan and mix everything together. At this point, you can crack a few eggs right into the hash, cover the skillet, and cook until the eggs are just set, or serve the hash with fried or poached eggs on top. Either way, the combination of runny yolk over the savory hash is seriously satisfying.

Garnish with chopped parsley or chives for a fresh touch, and maybe a splash of hot sauce or a dollop of Greek yogurt if you like a little kick. It’s a complete breakfast that keeps you full, energized, and ready to tackle the day.

This turkey and carrot breakfast hash is perfect for busy mornings, weekend brunch, or even a quick dinner. It’s easy, nourishing, and a great way to make use of simple ingredients in a creative and delicious way.

      I don’t know about the bell peppers. Isn’t that a bit weird for breakfast? Just saying…
