The Ultimate AIP Breakfast Bowl
It can be challenging to find inspiring AIP breakfast ideas since many breakfasts are prepared using eggs, potatoes, tofu, or grains. This colorful bowl is a delicious and nutritious meal perfect for breakfast, brunch, or lunch. The flavorful ground turkey goes beautifully with the crunchy pickled carrots, rich avocado, creamy spinach, and umami mushrooms. This meal has the perfect balance of macro and micronutrients, making it suitable for many diets, including Whole30, Low Carb, dairy-free, and egg-free diets.
How to Make It
Step 1
Slice the mushrooms and thinly slice the carrot into ribbons using a vegetable peeler. Whisk the vinegar, water, maple syrup, and 1/8 tsp salt in a bowl. Add the carrot ribbons and submerge them in the pickling liquid.
Step 2
Let the pickled carrots sit on the counter while you cook the remaining ingredients. Add 1 tsp of oil to a pan or skillet and place it over medium heat. Once the oil is hot, add the mushrooms and let them cook untouched for a minute or two.
Step 3
Stir the mushrooms and cook for another minute. Season with a pinch of salt and ¼ tsp garlic powder. Transfer to a serving bowl.
Step 4
Add 2 tsp of oil and place the pan/skillet over medium heat. Add the ground turkey and cook for 3-5 minutes until no longer pink. Season with ½ tsp garlic powder, onion powder, oregano, turmeric, and 1/8 tsp salt. Transfer to the bowl.
Step 5
Add the remaining olive oil to the pan/skillet. Add the spinach and cook for 3-4 minutes until wilted. Add ¼ tsp garlic powder, a pinch of salt, and lemon juice. Cook for another minute, then transfer to the bowl.
Step 6
Discard the pickling liquid, and add the carrot ribbons to the bowl. Cut the avocado in half, remove the seeds, slice a quarter of it, and add to the bowl. Serve immediately.
