Ingredients

• 2 medium sweet potatoes
• 4 eggs
• 2 tablespoons coconut oil
• 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
• 1 teaspoon sea salt
• 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
• 0.25 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes (optional)

Directions

Step 1

Peel the sweet potatoes and use a spiralizer to create long, thin strands resembling noodles.

Step 2

Heat 1 tablespoon of coconut oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium heat.

Step 3

Add the spiralized sweet potatoes to the skillet, seasoning with sea salt and black pepper.

Step 4

Cook for 8-10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the sweet potatoes are tender and slightly crisped.

Step 5

Once done, remove the sweet potato nests from the skillet and divide them onto two serving plates, shaping them into nests with a dip in the center for the eggs.

Step 6

In the same skillet, add the remaining tablespoon of coconut oil over medium heat.

Step 7

Carefully crack the eggs into the skillet and cook sunny-side-up until the whites are set but the yolks are still runny, about 3-4 minutes.

Step 8

Gently place two sunny-side-up eggs on each sweet potato nest.

Step 9

Garnish with chopped fresh parsley and a sprinkle of crushed red pepper flakes if desired.

Step 10

Serve immediately and enjoy your Paleo Bird's Nest!
