Ingredients:
1 tablespoon coconut oil or other cooking fat
1/2 cup diced red onion
1/2 cup diced yellow bell pepper
1/2 cup diced red bell pepper
1 jalapeño pepper, minced (optional)
1 pound ground beef, bison, turkey, or chicken
2 tablespoons Southwestern Spice Blend (page 223), divided
4 large parsnips, shredded (4 cups)
1 (4-ounce) can diced green chilies
6 eggs
sea salt and black pepper to taste
2 tablespoons or more Avocado Crema*
1/4 cup chopped cilantro
 
* Scarletta Bakes has an excellent avocado crema recipe.

Step 1

In a large oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat, melt the coconut oil and cook the onion, bell peppers, and jalapeño for 1 minute. Crumble in the ground meat and sprinkle with 1 tablespoon of the Spice Blend. Stir to combine and cook until the meat is browned and mostly cooked through, about 10 minutes.

Step 2

Add the shredded parsnips and can of green chilies, sprinkle with the remaining 1 tablespoon of the Spice Blend, and stir to combine. Continue cooking until the parsnips start to soften (don’t allow them to get too soft), about 3 to 5 minutes.

Step 3

Place the oven rack in the top position and preheat the broiler to low.

Step 4

Make 6 wells in the meat-parsnip mixture and crack an egg into each one. Put the pan under the broiler and cook for about 5 minutes or until the whites are cooked through and the yolks are cooked to the desired doneness.

Step 5

Add salt and pepper to taste and garnish with Avocado Crema and cilantro.
