Heat a skillet to medium heat on the stovetop with 1/2 tablespoon olive oil. Once the pan is hot, add the ground turkey and break it up using a wooden spoon. Season with taco seasoning and cook until the meat is no longer pink. Adjust the seasoning with salt and pepper to taste.
In a medium bowl, crack the eggs and add cottage cheese along with a pinch of salt and pepper. Whisk until well combined. Heat a skillet to medium-low and melt 1 pat of butter to coat the bottom. Pour in the egg mixture and gently fold and cook until the eggs are firm and fluffy. Set aside.
Wipe out the pan used for the turkey and heat it again to medium heat with the remaining olive oil. Squeeze moisture from the shredded potatoes using a clean kitchen towel. Add the potatoes to the hot skillet, season with salt and pepper, and press them down. Let them cook for 4-5 minutes until golden, breaking them up and flipping to cook evenly.
Divide the eggs, cooked turkey, and crispy potatoes into two bowls. Add your desired toppings like fresh herbs, avocado, or salsa, and enjoy this wholesome breakfast meal!

Always squeeze excess moisture from the potatoes for the perfect crispy texture. This recipe can be made vegan by substituting ingredients as needed.
