Bacon, Eggs, and Kale mixed with some Nutritional Yeast makes the perfect breakfast.  Nothing is better than “Cheesy” breakfast dishes that don’t actually contain cheese.  You can make it on a Sunday and have breakfast ready every day of the week.  It makes your mornings so much more simple waking up, having to get ready for work, and already having breakfast ready to go.

This dish is super easy to make.

First, you take the bacon, slice it into 1 inch slices, and throw it into a 12 inch frying/sauté pan.  Cover with the lid and allow to simmer over medium/medium low, stirring about every two minutes, until cooked.  Once crispy remove the bacon from the grease spreading it out onto a paper towel.  Add the kale to the bacon grease in the pale. cover and cook, stirring every few minutes.  You want the Kale to be slightly wilted, crispy on the edges and slightly browning.

While cooking the Kale, mix up the eggs and remaining ingredients.  Once the Kale is done cooking add the Bacon Egg mixture to the Kale.  Cook and enjoy!!

Can’t stand to look at another egg?  Then, THIS IS YOUR DISH and IT IS AMAZING! Not only is it amazing but it is Whole30 and Paleo Compliant.  It is also extremely easy to make.   I took my Breakfast Sausage Recipe and added Sweet Potato and Kale.  It is that simple!

how to make:

You start with your protein/meat of choice. I prefer ground Pork but Chicken or Turkey work just as well.  In a bowl add the the protein and Sausage Seasoning together.  Add the mixture to a pre-heated pot, cover and cook.  Add the chicken broth or water and give it a good stir.  You could also you Bone Broth to add extra nutrients. Next you add the Sweet Potatoes and Kale.  Again, give it a good stir making sure everything is mixed, cover and cook.  What is great about this dish is you can’t taste the Kale.  Cooking the Kale in the juices of the Sausage gives it an Amazing flavor.  The sweet potatoes add a little bit of sweetness without adding any sweetener.

This twist to a Breakfast Hash is perfect to prep at the beginning of the week and have all week long.  This recipe can easily be doubled for meal prep.  I usually make a double batch and it provides breakfast for two throughout the week.   As with any recipe take this and make it work for you.  If you like it a little hotter add extra Crusted Red Pepper.  Don’t like it hot, add less.  You can’t go wrong.  As always, Enjoy!

Breakfast Sausage https://www.atwistedplate.com/breakfast-sausage/

Breakfast Sausage is a staple for most Breakfast… Who doesn’t LOVE Sausage?!  It goes great with eggs for the ultimate Breakfast.  Its NOT just for Breakfast though,  you can put it on-top of a salad at lunch or in your favorite marinara for dinner.  Needless to say, this is a staple when meal prepping,  especially if doing a Whole30.  I usually make a large batch of it and store it in the fridge to use all week.  It is great for a quick and easy breakfast and to mix in with different meals.  This recipe is really versatile and works well with any ground meat pork, chicken or turkey.

An average breakfast in our house consist of sausage, eggs and sweet potatoes.  Finding a clean and affordable Sausage is no easy task.  Add on trying to find one that is Whole30 compliant and taste good.  Therefore, I set out to create my own. I cannot tell you the number of Sausage recipes I have tried and and failed at!  Many versions have ended in the trash can because I didn’t like the seasoning or it just was too dry.  Nobody likes dry Sausage!

What is great about this recipe is you can make it more or less spicy.  Simply add  more or less Crushed Red Pepper.  If you prefer something a little sweeter, or want to change it up, you can add a little Maple Syrup (not Whole30).  Another plus in making your own sausage is that you can prepare it however you want.  You can make links, patties meatballs or crumbles.  I have found that for meal prep crumbles are best.  You can just take the sausage and throw it on or with anything.   If you don’t tolerate egg, just omit the the egg. I hope you ENJOY this recipe as much as we do!
