5 Minute Protein-Packed Breakfast Skillet
Everything about this meal makes me want to run in the other direction. It couldn’t be less me. But for some reason, one day I made it. And then I made it 5 more days in a row.
I’m typically a carbs-for-breakfast girl: oatmeal, pancakes, etc. But no matter how many pounds of nut butter you stir into a bowl of oats, it just doesn’t keep you full for very long. Not me anyways.
I still have my morning carb fest, but then after my workout I’ll make a second, protein-packed breakfast to refuel and keep me going until lunch.
Surprisingly enough, it takes hardly any time to whip together.

Ingredients
- 1-2 eggs
- 1 apple chicken sausage
- 1 handful greens {I used spinach & arugula}
- 1/4 avocado, sliced {optional}
- black pepper, to taste
Instructions
Heat pan or skillet over medium heat.
Add sausage & greens to hot pan and cook for ~1 minute.
Add egg{s} to pan and heat until whites are cooked through. Flip egg over sausage and greens. I like to keep the yolk slightly runny.
Season with black pepper and top with sliced avocado.
Tastes pretty yummy smothered in hot sauce too. 
What’s your favorite way to get protein in the am?
