I used to be the kind of person who would skip breakfast. I’d claimed to be ‘too busy’ for making breakfast and would simply drink a coffee. By about 10AM I’d be STARVING.

Thankfully, over the years – I’ve gotten smarter. I now know that breakfast is super important, and have realized that you don’t have to create a super elaborate meal to have a healthy breakfast. Sometimes the simplest things can be the base for a perfect meal!

One of my favorite things to have for my breakfast are these Jones Dairy Farm Golden Brown Chicken Sausages! The patties are delicious on their own, and also awesome for making easy breakfast sandwiches.

I also love pairing them with scrambled eggs or along side my favorite potato crust quiche.

I love that they’re pre-cooked so all you have to do is warm them up in a pan (or microwave!) and that they’re gluten free! They’re seriously a lifesaver for people who have busy mornings. And they go amazingly in these easy meal prep bowls.

I get mine at my Stop & Shop but you can use the Jones product locator to see where they’re sold near you.

Even though I never miss out on breakfast these days, I still don’t like to eat a ton in the morning (it’s just my personal preference!) I usually eat a smaller meal that is high in protein to help keep me full until lunch.

These breakfast bowls have 22 grams of protein in one bowl, making them a great high protein meal prep, and couldn’t be easier to make – I think you’re gonna love them! Here’s how to make them:

I love the mix of veggies/eggs/sausage, but if any of those are not your thing – I’ve come up with a few substitutions.

Substitutions for this breakfast meal prep bowl recipe:

Eggs- If you prefer soft boiled eggs, follow this tutorial! If you want to skip the eggs as a whole, I recommend doubling up on the sausage and veggies!

Meat – Jones has so many varieties of sausage. If you want to make these paleo/whole30 friendly check out their no sugar added sausages. You can also use links instead of patties.

Veggies– We love any kind of veggies in these bowls. Sliced cucumbers, cherry tomatoes, or even lettuce/spring mix will go great in these bowls!

Spice it up– I like to add hot sauce or fresh salsa on top of my eggs/veggies – it’s delicious!
