Twice Baked Stuffed Sweet Potatoes with Bacon and Eggs ???⠀
⠀
Makes 8 servings⠀
⠀
Ingredients:⠀
4 medium sweet potatoes/yams⠀
1 Tbsp clarified butter or ghee⠀
6 slices nitrate free bacon, cooked and crumbled⠀
1 red bell pepper, diced⠀
1 green bell pepper, diced⠀
3 green onions, sliced⠀
2 fresh garlic cloves, minced⠀
1 tsp smoked paprika⠀
1 tsp ground cumin ⠀
sea salt and fresh ground black pepper, to taste⠀
8 medium eggs⠀
⠀
Optional:⠀
a small amount of grated cheese of choice ⠀
Instructions:⠀
Preheat your oven to 400 degrees f. and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.⠀
⠀
Thoroughly wash and scrub your potatoes, then cut them in half, lengthways as shown.⠀
⠀
Lightly spray or rub with avocado/olive oil then bake for 35-40 minutes or until fork tender.⠀
⠀
Meanwhile, heat butter in a large skillet over medium high heat. Add in peppers, garlic and green onions and sauté for 3-4 minutes.⠀
⠀
Once the potatoes are baked, allow to cool for a few minutes, just enough to safely handle them, then using a spoon carefully scoop out the inside leaving a thin layer around the skins.⠀
⠀
Set the skins aside.⠀
⠀
Place the scooped-out potato flesh into your sauteed peppers mixture, then add the crumbled bacon. ⠀
Add all seasonings, then stir to combine well, and season with sea salt and pepper just to your taste.⠀
⠀
Spoon the potato mixture back into your potato skins, then with a spoon make a space in the middle of each one for an egg.⠀
⠀
Gently crack an egg into each potato, then bake in your preheated oven for about 12- 15 minutes until eggs set to you liking.⠀
⠀
I sprinkled mine with a tiny pinch of grated cheese and fresh green onions + cilantro right as they came out of oven.
