Open in Pepper →When breakfast is a cup of coffee and a handful of cereal, you're hungry again by ten. Food built around eggs, chicken, turkey, and cottage cheese sticks with you through the morning meetings and the afternoon carpool line.
Cooks on Pepper reach for this collection on Sunday afternoons, when they're making a batch of egg bites or burritos to pull out of the freezer all week, and on mornings when there's five minutes to get something in before the door closes.
Every recipe here leans on simple, filling ingredients: a Protein Peanut Butter Shake you blend in a minute, High Protein Egg Bites with chicken sausage and spinach, Protein Cottage Cheese Pancakes, Garlic Butter Chicken with creamy potatoes, and breakfast burritos made with lean ground turkey.
Bake egg bites in water
Set the muffin pan inside a larger pan with about 1 inch of hot water and bake at 350°F for 20 to 25 minutes so the egg whites stay soft instead of rubbery.
Freeze the banana first
A banana frozen at least 4 hours makes shakes and smoothies thick without watering them down with extra ice.
Blend the cottage cheese
Run cottage cheese in the blender for 30 seconds with the oats and egg whites so the pancake batter pours smooth with no curds.
Cool burritos before wrapping
Let the turkey and hash brown filling sit 10 minutes before rolling, then wrap in foil and freeze so the tortillas don't go soggy.
