    Our easy Turkey Vegetable Breakfast Bake is made with a healthier breakfast alternative. Yes, Butterball. Butterball is best known as the main course at Thanksgiving dinner, right? They also offer a wide variety of quality turkey products, including fresh, raw ground turkey.

    You can use ground turkey in so many recipes (think turkey burgers, meat balls, even sloppy joes). Plus, Butterball is all natural with no artificial ingredients.

    Whip those eggs until they are light and fluffy. Then, add the goodies. You know...cheese! The possibilities of flavor are endless. Pick your favorites. We went with mild cheddar. (Next time, I'll try it with Monterrey Jack.)

    Cottage cheese, fresh tomatoes and black olives are also mixed in for extra color and flavor. This is going to be so good. Pour the egg and cheese mixture over the top of the ground turkey mixture. Stir to combine and pop in the oven.

    Turkey Vegetable Breakfast Bake is loaded with protein (over 40 grams per serving), and relatively low in carbs. If you want to cut back a little more here are some suggestions:

    • Cut the butter by half to cut more calories
    • Reduce the amount of cheese by half to reduce calories and fat
    • Double the amount of ground turkey for major protein-boost
    • Use non-fat cottage cheese
    • Add more fresh vegetables for added nutrients

    Doesn't this look so yum? The lean Butterball ground turkey is so good. All of those bright and colorful vegetables with the eggs and cheese, too. Your family will love this recipe. Mine did!

    This Turkey Vegetable Breakfast Bake can be served two ways. Cut it into serving sized squares and serve on a plate. Or, for those super busy mornings, crumble it. It makes an excellent filling in a spinach wrap or tortilla for yummy breakfasts on-the-go.

    Ingredients
      

    • 1.25 lb package of Butterball Fresh Ground Turkey 85/15 blend
    • 12 eggs
    • 16 oz 2% cottage cheese
    • 2 ½ cups shredded mild cheddar cheese
    • 1 bell pepper diced
    • 1 small tomato diced
    • ½ onion diced
    • 2.25 oz can sliced black olives drained

    • 1 teaspoon baking powder
    • 1 teaspoon salt divided
    • ½ teaspoon chili powder
    • ½ teaspoon garlic powder

    Instructions
     

    • Preheat oven to 350. Spray an 8x12 or 9x13 baking dish with non-stick spray and set aside.
    • In a large skillet, add 1 tablespoon of the melted butter. Over medium high heat, cook the bell pepper and onion until tender. Add the ground turkey and cook until browned and no longer pink. Remove from heat, drain, and return to the skillet. Stir in half of the salt, all of the chili powder and garlic powder.
    • Spoon the turkey mixture into the bottom of the prepared baking dish.
    • In a large bowl, whisk the eggs until they are light and fluffy. Quickly whisk in the flour, baking powder, black pepper and remaining salt.
    • Add the cottage cheese, cheddar cheese, remaining butter, diced tomatoes and black olives to the egg mixture. Stir to combine.
    • Pour the egg and cheese mixture on top of the browned turkey. Stir in the baking dish to combine.
    • Bake uncovered for 45 minutes or until the center is set. (Baking times will vary based on size of pan and oven.)
    • Let rest for 15 minutes before serving. Cut into squares or serve with warm flour tortillas and salsa.

        Thanks, Melanie. It turned out great. It is nice and moist and all of the flavors with the turkey turned out great. (I ate some for lunch, too. Great protein-boost for mid-day.)
