Za'atar Turkey & Egg Scramble

This Middle Eastern-inspired scramble delivers serious staying power in a small, satisfying portion. Lean ground turkey is browned with onion and earthy za'atar, then folded together with soft, gently cooked eggs so every bite carries protein. A quick swipe of garlicky Greek yogurt stands in for a heavier sauce, adding tang and creaminess without extra fat, while a scatter of fresh herbs and a squeeze of lemon keep things bright. Built for a modest appetite but a big protein target, this plate packs roughly 35g of protein into a compact, easy-to-finish serving. It comes together in one pan in under 20 minutes, with a short ingredient list and no heavy or greasy components that might sit poorly. Naturally gluten-free thanks to simple whole-food ingredients, it's an easy weekday breakfast that feels like a treat but eats light.

• 170 glean ground turkey, 93% lean or leaner
• 0.5 smallyellow onion, finely chopped
• 1.5 tbspza'atar seasoning, certified gluten-free
• 1 tspolive oil

Method

1. In the small bowl, stir together the Greek yogurt, grated garlic, a pinch of salt, and a squeeze of lemon juice. Set aside; this is your garlicky yogurt swipe.
2. Crack the eggs into a bowl, season with a little salt and pepper, and whisk until just combined.
3. Heat the olive oil in the skillet over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and cook, stirring, until softened and lightly golden, about 3 minutes.
4. Add the ground turkey and za'atar to the skillet. Break up the meat with the spatula and cook, stirring occasionally, until browned and cooked through, about 5-6 minutes.
5. Lower the heat to medium-low. Pour the whisked eggs into the skillet with the turkey mixture and let sit a few seconds, then gently fold and stir until the eggs are just set and softly scrambled, about 2-3 minutes.
6. Taste and adjust seasoning with salt and pepper. Divide between two plates, swipe each with the garlicky yogurt, and top with chopped parsley or mint and a lemon wedge.
