By now, you know that breakfast isn’t really ‘breakfast’ around here. We enjoy breakfast inspired recipes for breakfast, lunch, dinner, snack, dessert, and even appetizers! This potato skins recipe is no exception. Other than dessert, this easy recipe would work for any meal of the day! It also makes a great meal prep recipe, too.

So, if you always have breakfast on the brain, it’s time to dive into this! Not only will it make eating more fun, but it will also impress your family and any guests.

As we were thinking about creative ways to integrate breakfast into our game day spread, we thought about out one of our favorite recipes, potato skins. When the games start at 1:00 p.m, we like to have our guests over for brunch. So, we knew this recipe would be a hit! But, you don’t have to serve this only for breakfast. Brinner is a real thing.

We kept this version veggie based with our Southwestern Veggie Scramble Bowl, but for our meat lovers out there, our Bacon Scramble or Turkey Sausage Scramble Bowls would be a great swap!

If you just aren’t feeling the breakfast theme and really want some more “meat” with those potatoes, then our Steak Black Bean or Chicken Black Bean Bowls are a great option! You also don’t need to limit your dipping sauces to hot sauce. Other delicious condiments would be:

  • sour cream
  • ranch
  • buffalo sauce
  • bbq sauce
  • cilantro avocado dip

The flavor combinations are endless, as always! So, are you ready to be the real MVP at the next game?

Southwestern Stuffed Breakfast Tomatoes

Southwestern Stuffed Breakfast Tomatoes are a fiesta of flavors! Filled with egg whites, tangy salsa, black beans and a pinch of chili powder. These low carb, gluten free tomatoes are delicious for breakfast or lunch. 

Southwestern Stuffed Breakfast Tomatoes

These Southwestern Stuffed Breakfast Tomatoes are lovely for breakfast, brunch, or even a light lunch. They are tasty, healthy, and stunning. And, who doesn’t love to eat pretty food?

We especially love this recipe in the summertime when the fresh garden tomatoes are firm, ripe and bursting with sweet tomato flavor. There is just something about the natural sweetness when combined with the salty flavors in our Southwestern Scramble Bowl that makes this recipe to die for!

If you have ever had baked or broiled tomatoes, then this is a must try recipe! Now, we know not everyone loves the texture of cooked tomatoes, so if that is the case, you can always serve these in a raw tomato. Just make sure to cook the scramble bowl thoroughly and top with grated parmesan cheese, instead.

Cooked tomatoes are also thought to be very healthy – perhaps even healthier than raw tomatoes. Cooking seems to concentrate the levels of the antioxidant lycopene in tomatoes.

If you are serving these for breakfast or brunch, we recommend serving them with a slice or two or toast and fresh fruit. If you are trying to stick to a low carb diet, then a crisp garden salad is also a nice pairing.

Lastly, if you are into meal prepping, these will store in a tightly sealed container for up to 3 days in the refrigerator. You can pair them with some oven roasted potatoes and fresh fruit for a grab ‘n go breakfast for work!
