Ingredients

  1. 1 teaspoon olive oil
    1 pound ground turkey or ground beef

Instructions

Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.

  1. Add the ground meat and cook, stirring occasionally, until no longer pink, about 8 minutes.
  2. Stir in the salsa and cook for an additional 3 minutes.
  3. Create six small wells in the meat mixture and crack an egg into each well.
  4. Cover the skillet and cook until the egg whites are set but yolks remain runny, about 5–8 minutes.
  5. Remove from heat and serve immediately. Optionally, garnish with chopped green onions or fresh herbs.

Notes

  1. Use hot salsa or jalapeños for added heat.
  2. Add vegetables like bell peppers or spinach for extra nutrients.
  3. Top with cheese or avocado if desired.
  4. Store leftovers in the fridge for up to 3 days.
