Polish Jajecznica
(pronounced YAH-yetch-neetz-uh)
Translating to “scrambled eggs,” a full jajecznica is made up of seasoned scrambled eggs topped with JENNIE-O® Turkey Kielbasa #613620 and potato pancakes.
The name can be tough to pronounce, so consider referring to it as something easy, like “Polish Breakfast”.
Vietnamese Pho
(pronounced FUH)
In Vietnam, pho is eaten any time of day—including breakfast. Serve this un-pho-gettable meal made up of JENNIE-O® All Natural* Turkey Breast Strips #616920, chicken stock, rice noodles, chili pepper, green onion, cilantro, spice blend and lime.
Along with a spoon and fork, give curious students the option of using chopsticks.
*Minimally processed, no artificial ingredients
North African/Middle Eastern Shakshuka
(pronounced shahk-SHOO-kuh)
Originating from the phrase “all mixed up,” shakshuka is a familiar-yet-unique combination of ingredients. Make it using JENNIE-O® Savory Turkey Crumbles #08996, eggs, tomatoes, onions, peppers and tomato sauce.
Don’t have naan? Serve with a slice of toasted bread instead.
Mexican Chilaquiles
(pronounced chill-uh-KEE-lays)
Chilaquiles is a great way to use up leftover tortillas. Prepare by combining JENNIE-O® All Natural* Turkey Breast Strips #616920, jalapeño, onion, cotija cheese, cilantro and crema drizzle with baked tortilla chips.
Not all kids like heat, so consider serving the jalapeños on the side.
