Recipe: Sheet pan breakfast with eggs and Brussels sprouts
Some mornings call for something real. Not a smoothie. Not another protein bar. Real food on a real plate that actually fills you up.
This sheet pan breakfast is exactly that. Crispy potatoes, golden baked eggs, roasted Brussels sprouts, and just enough bacon to make it feel like a treat. One pan. One oven. Done.
And here's the best part: it works for breakfast, brunch, or dinner. No rules on when comfort food is allowed.
Why this sheet pan breakfast works
You've got enough going on. You don't need a pile of dirty dishes on top of it.
This recipe keeps it simple. Everything goes in together and comes out together. The cleanup is easy. And the food is genuinely satisfying.
It's the kind of meal that works on a busy Tuesday morning just as well as a slow Sunday brunch. Real food, made simply. That's what we're about here at Get Real Weight Loss.
What makes this recipe nourishing
Women over 50 often find that how they start the day matters. A lot.
When breakfast includes protein, fiber, and healthy fat, you stay full longer. You feel steadier through the morning. You make choices from a calm, satisfied place, not a hungry, frantic one.
This sheet pan breakfast brings all three:
- Eggs and bacon deliver quality protein to keep you satisfied
- Brussels sprouts and potatoes add fiber to support digestion and blood sugar
- Avocado oil provides healthy fat to help your body absorb vitamins
None of this is complicated. It's just real food doing what real food does.
Prep Time: 1 hour
Cook Time: 40 minutes
Servings: 4
Ingredients
- 4 medium Yellow Potatoes, diced
- 4 cups Brussels Sprouts, halved
- 2 tablespoons Avocado Oil
- Sea Salt & Black Pepper to taste
- 4 slices Bacon, cut into 1 inch pieces
- 8 Eggs
Instructions
-
Start by preheating your oven to 390ºF (200ºC) and brushing a sheet pan with oil.
- Dice the potatoes and halve the Brussels sprouts. Toss them together with avocado oil, sea salt, and pepper.
- Next, cut the bacon into 1 inch pieces and mix them in with the vegetables before transferring everything to the sheet pan. Bake this for 30 minutes.
- Once the bake time is over, gently toss the vegetables in the pan. Form small 'wells' in the vegetable mix and crack the eggs into them. Put the pan back into the oven for an additional 10 minutes, or longer if you like your eggs more done.
- To serve the sheet pan breakfast, use a spatula to lift the eggs and veggies from the pan before dividing between plates. Dig in and enjoy!
Notes:
This sheet pan breakfast recipe is flexible. You can swap in whatever vegetables you have on hand. Zucchini, bell peppers, or spinach all work well at the same temperature and timing.
- Want to make it ahead? Double the batch and save the leftovers. Reheat in the oven at 350°F for about 10 minutes and the potatoes will crisp right back up.
- And if you're cooking for one or two, the recipe scales down easily. Use the same pan, same temperature, just fewer of everything.
-
Vegetarian? Omit the bacon. The Brussels sprouts and potatoes still carry all the flavor beautifully.
-
Prefer a runny yolk? Check the eggs at 8 minutes instead of waiting the full 10.
