Ingredients

• 4 slices Whole30-compliant bacon
• 2 units Large eggs
• 2 tablespoons Nutritional yeast
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
• 1 tablespoon Avocado oil
• 1 unit Sweet potato, medium
• 0.5 cup Spinach (optional)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).

Step 2

Wash and peel the sweet potato. Slice it into 1/2 inch-thick rounds to create 'buns'.

Step 3

Place the sweet potato rounds on a baking sheet, brush with a bit of avocado oil and season with a pinch of salt and pepper.

Step 4

Roast the sweet potato slices in the oven for about 20 minutes, flipping halfway through, until tender and golden.

Step 5

While the sweet potatoes are baking, heat a large skillet over medium heat.

Step 6

Add the bacon slices to the skillet and cook until they are crispy, about 3-4 minutes per side. Remove the bacon and let it drain on a paper towel-lined plate.

Step 7

In a small bowl, whisk together the eggs, nutritional yeast, and a pinch of salt and pepper.

Step 8

In the same skillet where you cooked the bacon, add the remaining avocado oil. Pour in the beaten eggs and scramble them gently until fully cooked through, about 3-4 minutes.

Step 9

Once the sweet potato buns are ready, assemble the sandwich: Place one sweet potato round on a plate, top with scrambled eggs, add two slices of crispy bacon, a sprinkle of nutritional yeast (acts like cheese), and top with spinach if desired.

Step 10

Finish with another sweet potato round to form a sandwich.

Step 11

Serve immediately while hot and enjoy your wholesome Whole30 breakfast sandwich!
