Sausage, bacon and egg breakfast is the full paleo fry-up on one big plate. Sausages steam and brown in a covered pan, bacon crisps alongside, and the eggs scramble in bacon fat with cherry tomatoes. Olives and lettuce finish the plate like a Mediterranean breakfast.
Pro Tips
- Poke the sausages with a fork before they hit the pan — it breaks the skin so they cook through instead of bursting.
- Start the sausages in two tablespoons of water and cover the pan; the steam cooks them through in 10-15 minutes until their own fat renders out.
- Cook the bacon to your preference in a separate pan and keep the bacon grease — the eggs scramble in it.
- Quarter half the cherry tomatoes into the eggs while scrambling, and save the rest for the plate so some stay fresh and crisp.
- Plate it like the recipe: lettuce leaves down first, then tomatoes and olives, with the bacon, sausages and eggs arranged on top.
Frequently Asked Questions
Why start the sausages in water?
The water steams the sausages gently so they cook through to the center, then evaporates as their own fat renders — browned outside, juicy inside.
Can I cook everything in one pan?
Two pans work better — the sausages need their covered steam-then-brown treatment, while the bacon wants direct heat to crisp properly.
Is this paleo?
It's built from meat, eggs and vegetables with coconut oil for frying. Choose sugar-free sausages and bacon to keep the plate fully clean.
How long does the whole plate take?
15-25 minutes, most of it hands-off while the sausages cook under the lid.
