Stove top sausage, eggs, and bacon are the traditional way to prepare this high protein meal. It can be very messy, and dangerous in a noisy, busy household. Proper adaptive equipment can allow even those with low vision to prepare this on the stove top. Though, they may need to carefully verify all the grease is cleaned up after cooking. For a person with physical or visual limitations, oven baking or a table top grill may be easier to cook and clean up. If bacon, sausage, and eggs are cooked as a one pan meal, cook eggs last for food safety.
