Ingredients

Scale

For the Roasted Sweet Potatoes

  • 2 cups cubed sweet potatoes, diced 1/2 inch
  • 1 tablespoon avocado or olive oil
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon chili powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon cumin

For the Tacos

  • 1 tablespoon avocado or olive oil
  • 1 green onion, thinly sliced
  • salt and pepper, to taste
  • 6 eggs
  • 6 (6 inch) flour tortillas

Toppings

  • sharp white cheddar cheese, shredded
  • sliced avocado
  • chopped cilantro
  • pico de Gallo
  • hot sauce

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 400 degrees and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Roast the Sweet Potatoes: Toss the diced sweet potatoes in the oil, sea salt, garlic powder, cumin, and chili powder until well coated. Place the diced sweet potatoes in a single layer on the lined sheet pan. Bake for 20-25 minutes until the sweet potatoes are slightly crisp on the outside and tender on the inside.
  3. Make the Eggs: When the sweet potatoes are done, it’s time to make the eggs. Add the eggs to a large mixing bowl and season with salt and pepper. Whisk until the eggs are well combined. Next, add a bit of avocado or olive oil to a skillet and heat over medium heat. Once hot add the thinly sliced green onion and sauté for 1-2 minutes. Next, add the eggs and gently cook until fluffy and set, moving them around the pan as needed.
  4. Assemble the Tacos: Evenly divide the sweet potatoes, and then scrambled eggs, among the flour tortillas. Next top with your favorite toppings and enjoy!
