Ingredients

  • 3 Tbsp avocado oil or olive oil
  • 1 medium-sized sweet potato chopped into ¼”-½” pieces
  • 1/4 red onion finely chopped
  • 1/2 tsp sea salt to taste
  • 2 to 3 large leaves rainbow chard chopped
  • 6 large eggs well beaten
  • 1 can black beans drained and rinsed

For Topping:

  • Salsa
  • 1 avocado peeled and sliced
  • Grated cheese of choice

Instructions

  • Heat the oil over medium heat and add the chopped sweet potato, onion, and sea salt. Cover and cook until vegetables are beginning to soften, about 5 to 8 minutes. Remove the cover and continue cooking, stirring occasionally, until potato is crispy on the outside and cooked through, about 10-12 minutes more.
  • While the potatoes are cooking, heat the black beans in a small pot until hot.
  • Add the greens to the skillet with the potato, cover, and cook until wilted, about 2 minutes. Taste the potatoes for flavor and season with sea salt. Note: you can also add spices like chili powder, cumin, and/or garlic powder.
  • A few minutes before the potatoes are finished cooking, prepare the eggs as desired. If making a scramble, crack the eggs into a bowl and whisk well. Pour evenly over the vegetables and allow them to sit for 2 minutes before flipping with a spatula. Allow eggs to sit another minute or two before flipping again. Continue cooking until eggs are cooked through.
  • Load up 2 to 3 bowls with desired amount of black beans, veggies, and eggs. Top with grated cheese, sliced avocado, salsa, and/or any other toppings of choice. Enjoy!

Notes

If including bacon or breakfast sausage in the bowls, cook the meat first before cooking the veggies. Once cooked, transfer the meat to a plate and set aside. Use the drippings from the meat to cook the vegetables.
