Instructions

1

Saute the Onion

Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat and add the diced onion. Cook for 3 minutes stirring occasionally until the onion softens and becomes translucent.

2

Brown the Turkey

Add the ground turkey to the skillet along with the garlic powder and red pepper flakes. Cook for 7 to 8 minutes breaking the meat apart until fully cooked through.

3

Add the Eggs

Crack the eggs directly into the skillet with the cooked turkey and stir everything together immediately. Cook for 2 to 3 minutes stirring frequently until the eggs are just set but still moist.
