Pork Free Paleo Roasted Pepper Plantain Breakfast Bowls
Caramelized plantains, charred bell peppers, and sweet roasted onion come together in a bowl that feels indulgent but is built entirely from whole, clean ingredients. The plantains go into a hot oven at 425°F until their edges turn golden and jammy, picking up smoky depth from paprika, cumin, and garlic powder — no complicated technique required. A skillet fried egg goes right on top, adding richness and protein that ties the whole bowl together. Creamy avocado slices and a fresh squeeze of lime cut through the warmth and keep every bite bright and balanced. Because every component here is naturally free of pork and pork-derived ingredients, there's no label-reading stress — just straightforward, satisfying cooking. Optional cilantro and red pepper flakes let you dial up the freshness or the heat depending on your mood. It's the kind of breakfast that makes you feel like you actually have your life together on a weekday morning.
