Sweet Potato Eggs

This recipe uses 3 main ingredients, some butter and some spices and WOW is it delicious. I love this recipe for transitioning back into a low carb diet because it's not super low in carbs coming in at 14 net so its great for everyone! Plus sweet potato have so many health benefits- they are a great source of fiber! And the fiber and antioxidants are great for your gut health. I also like to add in other vegetable to the sauté if I have them on hand- if you try this one let me know how you liked it down in the comments!


Sweet Potato Eggs- Serves 2
5 oz sweet potato, shaved into ribbons

1/3 cup white onion, chopped
2 Tbsp butter
4 eggs
Salt, pepper, and garlic powder to taste

In a non stick skillet over medium-high heat melt 1 tbsp of butter and add in the onion and sweet potato ribbons. Saute for 6 minutes stirring often to prevent burning. You want the sweet potato to get nice and crispy edges.
After 6 minutes move the sweet potato & onion mixture to the outer portion of your pan. Add in the rest of the butter (1 tbsp) to the middle of the skillet.
Crack your eggs into the melted butter and cook to your desired doneness. Flipping half way through cooking if needed.
Serve by scooping out the sweet potato mixture and adding the eggs right on top.
ENJOY!
