Steak and Egg Breakfast Bowl (Keto)
Some days it seems like everyone I know is going keto.
The keto diet, if you haven’t heard, is a low carb diet that’s been around since the 1920s. The idea behind the modern application of the keto diet is to lose weight by cutting out carbs and consuming more healthy fats and protein along with low carbohydrate veggies.
I may not follow a strict keto diet, but I do enjoy a healthy dose of good fat and protein, especially at breakfast. It keeps my energy level on an even keel so that I’m not reaching for snacks between breakfast and lunch.
This steak and egg breakfast bowl is an excellent way to start the day. I love to use Certified Angus Beef ® brand beef for this recipe. It’s not just your average beef. To earn the Certified Angus Beef ® brand name, cattle must pass 10 Quality Specifications that cover marbling, maturity, sizing, appearance, and tenderness. Those standards ensure flavorful, tender and juicy beef, every time.
You can find Certified Angus Beef ® brand beef using the store and restaurant locator.

Did you know that flank steaks are usually 1.75 pounds? You’ll end up using approximately half of the cooked flank steak to make this recipe.
So that means you’ll have half of the steak left over, which you can save for the next morning if you’d like to make another pair of steak and egg breakfast bowls, or you can repurpose it for fajitas, nachos, rice or noodle bowls, or any other recipe that calls for cooked flank steak.
Steak and Egg Breakfast Bowl (Keto Friendly)
This keto diet friendly steak and egg breakfast bowl combines marinated flank steak plus scrambled eggs along with sliced avocado, all garnished with flake salt and cracked black pepper.
Ingredients
Marinade
- 1/4 cup olive oil
- 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
- 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
Steak and Egg Breakfast Bowl
- 1 3/4 pounds flank steak, marinated Certified Angus Beef ® brand
- 4 large eggs
- 1 tablespoon heavy cream
- 2 teaspoons butter
- 1 avocado
- salt flake, if you have it
- black pepper freshly crack, if you have it
Instructions
Marinade
-
Whisk together the olive oil, Worcestershire sauce, and Dijon mustard. Coat the flank steak all over, cover it, and allow it to marinade for 1 hour, or overnight.
Steak and Egg Breakfast Bowl
-
Preheat a nonstick skillet over medium high heat. Once the skillet is hot, place the flank steak in the skillet and cook for 4 minutes, undisturbed and uncovered. Flip the steak and cook for 4 more minutes. Remove the steak and cover loosely to rest.
-
Remove the pan from the heat and let it cool down while you prepare the eggs.
-
Beat together the eggs and heavy cream. Once the skillet is cool enough, you can wipe it clean and place it back on the burner, this time over medium-low heat. Heat the pan until hot, then add the butter. It should foam lightly and sizzle very gently.
-
Pour the beaten eggs into the pan. Cook until a layer of cooked egg forms on the bottom of the pan (about 1 or 2 minutes), then gently push the layer of cooked egg into the center of the pan, allowing the uncooked eggs to run onto the pan surface. Continue to cook for another 2 minutes, gently moving or turning the cooked eggs, until they are no longer liquid.
-
Divide the scrambled eggs between 2 bowls. Slice half of the cooked steak across the grain in thin slices, then divide the slices between the two bowls. Slice the avocado and divide the slices between the two bowls. Garnish with salt and pepper, then serve immediately.
-
Store the remaining flank steak for future breakfast bowls or other recipes with flank steak.
Recipe Notes
Remember, the whole flank steak (cooked) makes 4 servings of steak. You'll only use 2 servings in this recipe. Save the remaining half for the next day's steak and egg breakfast bowls, or use in any recipe that calls for flank steak.

Steak for breakfast is ALWAYS a good idea! And love that avocado in there. Such a great way to start the day!

Did this with fried egg instead of omelette. The runny centre binds everything together and it was delicious. Also added some hot sauce
