Ingredients
- 4 strips of bacon
- 12 ounces sweet potato spiralized
- 1 large egg
- 2 ounces goat cheese
- salt and pepper to taste
- fresh parsley chopped, for garnish
Instructions
- Heat a large frying pan on medium heat and cook the bacon until crisp, around 10 minutes.
- Transfer the cooked bacon to a paper towel to blot off the excess oil, and then cut it up into small strips. Leave the bacon grease in the pan.
- Add the spiralized sweet potatoes to the pan and cook, stirring occasionally, until the potatoes just begin to wilt, about 8-10 minutes,
- While the potatoes cook, whisk together the egg and goat cheese until creamy.
- Once the potato noodles are tender, stir in the bacon strips. Then quickly pour the cheese/egg mixture into the pan and stir until the mixture has slightly thickened and is evenly coating the potato noodles.
- Season with salt and pepper and garnish with parsley.
