One of the best breakfasts you'll ever eat! Especially if you love eggs, sweet potatoes, bacon and maple syrup. Don't forget the nutritional value!

It’s taken me way too long to share this recipe with you. It’s one of my favorite breakfasts. It’s bright, colorful, there are a variety of flavors that partner well, a few different textures, plus it’s filled with nutrition.

Ever since I figured out how to cook sunny side up eggs I’ve been using them more and more in my cooking. If you’re not a fan of a runny yolk, then feel free to cook your egg a bit longer, however it will change the overall effect the egg gives this dish.

This recipe can also be enjoyed without the egg or the spinach, but in my opinion they balance out the flavors and add some extra nutrition. If it’s all sweet potatoes and bacon the dish gets a bit monotonous. I’ve tried. Still good, just not as good as putting all components together.

With those few notes out of the way, here’s the recipe. It’s simple and flavor packed.

Enjoy!
