Ground Beef and Eggs Recipe [Whole30 Scramble]

Ingredients

Ground beef: Theggs and ground beef skillet uses seasoned, cooked ground beef as its base. I personally make slow cooker ground beef about once a week and keep it on hand in the fridge or the freezer to make for easy, high-protein meals like this.

Eggs: Any eggs you have in the fridge will do for this recipe and any dairy-free scrambled eggs.

Salsa: If you haven’t tried salsa and eggs you’re missing out. Use whatever salsa fits your preferences and know that it will obviously alter the flavor a bit.

Expert Tips To Make It

This recipe uses already cooked and seasoned ground beef. If you only have raw beef on hand, it’ll take longer to make. Season as per your preference.

I use a cast-iron skillet to cook in and tallow as my non-stick. You can use avocado spray or oil in place of this but tallow is always healthier. Learn more about how to make beef tallow.

Though the recipe is based on scrambling the eggs into the taco meat and cooking, if you want to switch it up you can just crack the eggs into the beef and enjoy them sunny-side up as well. I would top it all with salsa at this point.

Know that there is not much seasoning added to the ground beef and eggs scramble. So, if you’re using unseasoned ground beef you’ll want to add in your own flavors.

Meal Prep and What To Do With Leftovers

If you have leftover ground beef and eggs, let it cool fully before storing it in the fridge in an airtight container. It will stay fresh for up to 3 days.

You can reheat the breakfast in a skillet until heated through or in intervals in the microwave.

You can also meal prep the beef and egg scramble into egg white wraps for busy mornings. These can be frozen in parchment paper and just reheated in the oven in the morning.

Fun hack: if you’re taking your beef and eggs on the go (which I do often) a Yeti mug keeps them warmer than any thermos I’ve tried.

Variations and Add-Ins

As mentioned, this whole30 breakfast scramble can be made into anything you want it to be. Below are some tasty add-ins as well as toppings to use to make it a fun, fresh flavor.

Vegetables: When you put the ground beef into the skillet, add garlic, chopped bell peppers, mushrooms, asparagus or any other vegetable makes for a tasty beef and egg omelet.

Cheese: If you don’t need these beef and eggs to be dairy-free, you can easily top the skillet with any cheese you like. A cheesy scramble is always a comforting one. Cheddar, grated parmesan cheese, or feta all work. Dairy-free cheese works as well I just tend not to use it as much.

Spice: Add a punch of heat to the eggs and ground beef by popping in some sliced jalapenos, red pepper flakes, or a dash of hot sauce.

Seasonings: My ground beef is normally seasoned with cumin, chili powder, garlic, salt, and paprika. You can adjust yours as per your preference.

Toppings: I top my eggs and beef primarily with salsa and kimchi. However, sliced avocado, pickled onions, and sour cream are delicious options as well.
