Healthy Country Sweet Potato and Egg Skillet
Ingredients
- 4 slices bacon, see shopping tips
- 1 cup onions, diced
- 1 cup red bell pepper, diced
- 4 cups sweet potatoes, peeled and diced into bite size cubes (~ 2 large potatoes, about 10 oz each)
- Season to taste with garlic powder, salt, pepper and other seasonings such as Trader Joe’s everyday seasoning, if desired
- 2 cups baby spinach leaves, packed
- 4 large eggs
Instructions
- Add bacon to a large nonstick pan. Cook until golden and crispy. Keep bacon grease in pan. Using a fork, remove bacon to a plate lined with paper towels. Set aside.
- To the same pan, add diced onion and red bell pepper and saute for a few minutes, to soften. Stir in diced sweet potatoes and add desired seasonings. Cook sweet potatoes for about 10 minutes, until soften. Stir often. Place a lid on the pan and continue to cook for about 5 minutes until sweet potatoes are fork tender.
- Uncover pan and crumble in bacon. Stir in spinach. Blend well. Continue to cook for a few minutes until spinach is wilted. Use a spatula to create 4 wells in the potato mixture. Crack an egg into each well and cook, covered, 2-4 minutes until eggs are cooked to your liking. If you like your eggs sunny-side up, leave the pan uncovered while they cook.
- Using a large spatula, divide among 4 bowls. Serve immediately.
