These air fryer breakfast bowls made with sausage and egg are a popular breakfast dish that typically includes scrambled eggs, breakfast sausage, and other ingredients such as cheese, potatoes, vegetables, or salsa, all served in a bowl. The potatoes can be cooked in the air fryer which makes for an easy and healthy breakfast in under 10 minutes.
Awhile ago, I wrote a post for Country Breakfast Bowls and that wasn't very point friendly. 16 smart points to be exact! Now that eggs are zero points and I also have an air fryer, I've found a way to make this a little bit healthier and way less points.
The air fryer is one of my favorite kitchen appliances. Check out some of these recipes! Air Fryer Chimichangas, Air Fryer Apple Hand PIes, Air Fryer Grilled Cheese, and Air Fryer Pita Pizzas.

Why You Will Love These Breakfast Bowls
These sausage and egg breakfast bowls come out to be 4 to 5 smart points depending on what type of cheeses you use.
To top off the crispy hash browns, cook some scrambled eggs in a pan with about an 1 oz of turkey sausage and top with cheese! My favorite cheese so far has been the
Tostitos medium con queso sauce. It's only 1 smart point for 2 tablespoons. This meal takes less than 10 minutes to make too and will be done by the time your hash browns get done cooking!
The Jimmy Dean Breakfast Bowls are 12 smart points compared to my version which is only 5! I've been eating this breakfast for the last 3 days now and just love it. Keeps me full after my gym work out until lunch. Just look at all that yummy cheese sauce on top.

I have added this to my breakfast lineup but changed a few things. I found kickin’ chicken sausages at Walmart. 1 link 0 points. Instead of queso I used 1/8 cup of Trader Joe’s lite shredded cheese. Put some cherry tomatoes on top. 3 points. The little sausage adds a little kick to the dish. I have share this with several WW friends.
