5 from 1 vote
Sweet Potato, Bacon, and Spinach Scramble is a nutrient-dense way to fuel your day!
Prep Time: 8 minutes
Cook Time: 20 minutes
Total Time: 28 minutes

Ingredients

  • 2 slices to 3 thick-cut bacon
  • ½ medium sweet potato chopped into ½” chunks
  • 2 large handfuls baby spinach
  • 5 eggs well beaten
  • salt to taste

For Serving:

  • Hot sauce or salsa
  • slices Avocado

Instructions

  • Heat a medium-sized (10-inch) cast iron (or non-stick) skillet to medium high. Cook the slices of bacon just until the sides begin to crisp up, flipping a couple of times. Transfer bacon to a cutting board and chop.
  • Add sweet potatoes to the hot skillet. Stir well, cover, and cook for 10 to 15 minutes, stirring occasionally. Sweet potatoes should be crispy on the outside and cooked-through on the inside. Note: if sweet potatoes start to darken too quickly, turn heat down to medium-low.
  • Add the chopped bacon and spinach and cook until spinach wilts, about 2 to 3 minutes.
  • Add beaten eggs and allow skillet to sit untouched for 2 minutes.
  • Use a spatula to flip eggs, allow them to sit again 1 to 2 minutes.
  • Flip eggs again and continue cooking until they reach desired done-ness.
  • Serve with avocado and salsa
