Soy Free Paleo Roasted Pepper Plantain Breakfast Bowls
Sweet, caramelized plantains roasted alongside smoky bell peppers and red onion make for a breakfast bowl that feels indulgent but comes together on a single sheet pan. The plantains go golden and jammy at the edges while the peppers blister just enough to develop that irresistible light char — all thanks to a simple spice blend of smoked paprika, cumin, and garlic powder. A fried egg nestled on top adds richness and protein, and creamy avocado slices with a fresh squeeze of lime tie the whole thing together beautifully. Every ingredient here is naturally free from soy, so there's no label-scanning or swapping required — just whole, real food from start to finish. Avocado oil does all the heavy lifting in both the roasting and the skillet, keeping things clean and flavorful without any hidden additives. Optional cilantro and red pepper flakes let you dial up the freshness and heat to your liking. This is the kind of morning meal that makes you genuinely excited to get out of bed.
