6 slices Center Cut Bacon Provides smokiness and richness; substitute with turkey bacon for a lower-fat option.
1 medium White Onion Adds sweetness and depth; shallots can be used for a milder flavor.
1 medium Poblano or Bell Pepper Contributes sweetness and color; any bell pepper color will work.
3 cloves Garlic Enhances overall flavor profile; fresh garlic is preferred.
1 pound Turkey Breakfast Sausage The primary protein, keeping the dish lower in calories.
2 tablespoons Chili Seasoning Provides essential spices for flavor; adjust according to your heat preference.
28 ounces Fire Roasted Crushed Tomatoes Adds body and richness.
2 cups Beef Broth Adjusts the consistency of the chili.

4 large Eggs Fried or baked, they give a wonderful finish to your Breakfast Chili and Eggs.
Toppings Avocado, pico de gallo, sour cream, or Greek yogurt can elevate your chili experience.

In a Dutch oven, cook the center cut bacon over medium heat until it's crispy and fully cooked. Transfer the bacon to a paper towel to drain, leaving the grease in the pot.
Using the remaining bacon grease, add the diced white onion and chopped poblano or bell pepper. Sauté for 2-3 minutes until they soften, then add minced garlic and cook until fragrant.
Crumble the turkey breakfast sausage into the pot and cook, stirring occasionally, until browned, about 5-7 minutes.
Add the chopped bacon back into the pot along with the chili seasoning, fire-roasted crushed tomatoes, and beef broth. Stir well to combine.
Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to low. Simmer for 45-60 minutes, allowing all the flavors to meld beautifully.
If you wish to add baked eggs on top, reserve some chili. Crack eggs gently over the reserved chili, and bake in the oven at 400°F for 12-15 minutes until set to your liking.

Optional: Garnish with avocado and sour cream for an extra creamy touch. Adjust seasoning based on taste preference.
