Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 large sweet potato
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 4 units large eggs
- 4 slices Whole30-compliant bacon
- 1 medium avocado
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 cup fresh spinach
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Wash the sweet potato thoroughly and pat dry. Slice it into 1/4-inch thick rounds to create the sweet potato buns.
Place the sweet potato slices on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Drizzle with 1 tablespoon of olive oil and season with a pinch of salt and pepper.
Bake the sweet potatoes in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, flipping halfway through, until tender and slightly crisp on the edges.
While the sweet potatoes are baking, cook the bacon in a skillet over medium heat until crispy, about 3-4 minutes per side. Transfer the cooked bacon to a plate lined with paper towels to drain.
In the same skillet, add the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil and reduce the heat to low.
Gently crack the eggs into the skillet and cook them to your desired doneness. Season the eggs with a pinch of salt and pepper.
Cut the avocado in half, remove the pit, and scoop the flesh into a bowl. Mash it slightly with a fork and season lightly with a pinch of salt.
Once the sweet potatoes are done baking, assemble the sandwiches by placing a sweet potato round on a plate, topping it with mashed avocado, a few spinach leaves, two slices of bacon, a cooked egg, and then another sweet potato round.
Serve immediately and enjoy your Whole30 Classic Bacon and Egg Sandwich!
