Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 slices Whole30-compliant bacon
- 2 units Large eggs
- 2 tablespoons Nutritional yeast
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 tablespoon Avocado oil
- 1 unit Sweet potato, medium
- 0.5 cup Spinach (optional)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Wash and peel the sweet potato. Slice it into 1/2 inch-thick rounds to create 'buns'.
Place the sweet potato rounds on a baking sheet, brush with a bit of avocado oil and season with a pinch of salt and pepper.
Roast the sweet potato slices in the oven for about 20 minutes, flipping halfway through, until tender and golden.
While the sweet potatoes are baking, heat a large skillet over medium heat.
Add the bacon slices to the skillet and cook until they are crispy, about 3-4 minutes per side. Remove the bacon and let it drain on a paper towel-lined plate.
In a small bowl, whisk together the eggs, nutritional yeast, and a pinch of salt and pepper.
In the same skillet where you cooked the bacon, add the remaining avocado oil. Pour in the beaten eggs and scramble them gently until fully cooked through, about 3-4 minutes.
Once the sweet potato buns are ready, assemble the sandwich: Place one sweet potato round on a plate, top with scrambled eggs, add two slices of crispy bacon, a sprinkle of nutritional yeast (acts like cheese), and top with spinach if desired.
Finish with another sweet potato round to form a sandwich.
Serve immediately while hot and enjoy your wholesome Whole30 breakfast sandwich!
