I love these Egg Stuffed Sweet Potatoes for a hearty and delicious breakfast or even lunch/dinner!
If you don’t know by now— I am obsessed with the combination of eggs, sweet potato, and avocado (if you watch my stories you know I eat Sweet Potato Toast ALL THE TIME) and this just brought my beloved meal to the next level!
Also, since the eggs are baked with the sweet potato— that’s one less pan for me to clean up which is always a win in my book 🤣
Some things you may be wondering about Egg Stuffed Sweet Potatoes
Is this meal Paleo/Whole 30? Yes! A very balanced Paleo + Whole 30 friendly meal including fat, fiber, protein, and complex carbohydrates that will keep you fueled for hours. You can’t ask for much more than that!
What should I do with the sweet potato that I scoop out? My recommendation— make my Sweet Potato Brownies, you won’t regret it! If you aren’t feeling something sweet, I typically add the leftover sweet potato to nourish bowls. Greens, leftover baked sweet potato, avocado, chicken or salmon, and a yummy dressing! Easy.
Can I make these ahead of time? Definitely! You can make the entire meal ahead of time and simply reheat later or you can pre-bake your sweet potatoes and just add the egg in and bake again when you are getting ready to eat.
