If you’re tired of eggs or looking for a hearty, real-food breakfast that keeps you full for hours, this customizable skillet hash is a staple in my kitchen. It’s high-protein, loaded with gut-friendly veggies, and naturally gluten-free.

The best part? You can use whatever ground protein you have on hand—turkey, chicken, or beef—and it comes together in just one pan for minimal morning cleanup.

Why You’ll Love It:

Protein-Packed & Versatile: Works equally well with ground turkey, ground chicken, or ground beef depending on what’s in your fridge.

Savory Flavor Booster: Drizzling coconut aminos at the very end gives the veggies and meat a rich, umami flavor without using soy or refined sugars.
