High Protein Breakfast Bowl (Gluten free)
Prep Time 10minutes mins
Cook Time 15minutes mins
Servings: 1 bowl
Ingredients
2 slices prosciutto
2 cups cubed potatoes
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 teaspoon garlic and herb seasoning
2 eggs
¼ cup fat-free yogurt or dairy free yogurt
Splash of oat milk
Salt and pepper to taste
Red pepper flakes optional
Instructions
Prep the Potatoes: Preheat your air fryer to 400°F (200°C). Toss the cubed potatoes with olive oil, garlic and herb seasoning, and a pinch of salt and pepper.
Air-Fry the Potatoes: Spread the potatoes in a single layer in your air fryer basket. Air fry for 15-20 minutes, shaking the basket occasionally, until golden brown and crispy.
Scramble the Eggs: While the potatoes cook, whisk together the eggs, yogurt, and a splash of oat milk in a bowl. Season with salt and pepper (to taste).
Cook the Eggs: Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-low heat. Pour in the egg mixture and gently scramble the eggs with a spatula until they reach a soft, fluffy consistency.
Assemble the Bowl: Once the potatoes are done, divide them between two bowls. Top each bowl with the scrambled eggs and a slice of prosciutto.
Serve: Enjoy immediately! Sprinkle with red pepper flakes for an extra kick (optional).
Notes
For a dairy-free high protein breakfast bowl, use dairy-free yogurt and oat milk.
For a low-fat breakfast bowl, use egg whites instead of whole eggs.
For perfectly crispy potatoes, make sure they are cut into even-sized cubes and not overcrowded in the air fryer basket.
You can substitute full-fat Greek yogurt for the fat-free yogurt if desired.
To create a bigger breakfast bowl by adding some of your favorite toppings such as sweet potatoes, hash browns, black beans, hard-boiled eggs or fresh fruitÂ
You can serve alongside small yogurt bowls or overnight oats topped with fresh blueberries, peanut butter, chia seeds, pumpkin seeds, almond butter and/or maple syrup. Mix in some whey protein to the yogurt or oats for extra protein.Â
Feel free to add other vegetables to the bowl as well such as chopped bell peppers, green onions, fresh tomatoes or spinach.
Top the high protein breakfast bowl with any fresh herbs.
