Low Calorie Breakfast Bowls
These Low Calorie Breakfast Bowls are just 198 calories, and are packed with 12.7g of protein! And I supplied you with my protein scrambled eggs recipes as well if you want to boost the protein even more. Knowing many of my readers have dietary restrictions, the toppings and protein add-ins are all optional and not in the calorie count. However, I have supplied you with the calories added in the ingredients section above. Special Tip: You can swap the potatoes out for sweet potatoes or cauliflower florets!!

- Spray a large pan with olive oil and heat over medium-high heat.
- Add the potatoes and onion to the hot pan, and sprinkle with salt and pepper
