Shakshuka, the North African and Middle Eastern classic of eggs poached in a spiced tomato sauce, makes an excellent breakfast because it's savory, warm, and endlessly adaptable. This version stirs in a little lean ground turkey for extra staying power alongside the peppers and tomatoes.

Building the sauce mostly from tomatoes and bell peppers rather than heavy cream or lots of oil keeps this dish light while the eggs and turkey provide a solid dose of protein to start the day. It's a one-skillet meal that eats like a proper breakfast rather than something rushed, and it fits comfortably into a calorie-conscious morning without leaving you hungry an hour later.

Serve it straight from the skillet with a small piece of whole-grain toast for scooping, or on its own for a lower-carb start to the day.
