Ingredients
- 1 sweet potato, peeled and cut in half lengthwise
- 6 eggs
- 2 egg whites
- 2 tablespoons low-fat milk
- 1 teaspoon hot sauce
- Kosher salt and fresh ground black pepper to taste
- 4 lices of bacon
- 3/4 teaspoon chili powder
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
- 1/3 cup shredded Monterey jack cheese
- 8 corn tortillas, charred on a gas stove burner or microwaved until warm
- cilantro, cheese, salsa and hot sauce for serving
Instructions
- In a microwave safe dish, place the peeled and halved sweet potato cut side down. Add in a 1/4 cup of water and cover the dish tightly with plastic wrap. Make a couple slits in the plastic wrap with a knife then microwave for 3-4 minutes or until the sweet potato is tender, but not thoroughly cooked. Remove from the dish and dice.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, egg whites, milk, hot sauce, salt and pepper. Set aside.
- Heat a large non-stick skillet over medium heat. Using kitchen scissors, cut the uncooked bacon (over the skillet) into small strips and let them fall in. Use a wooden spoon to separate the bacon pieces into an even layer and let them cook until crisp, about 4-5 minutes. You can also wait to dice the bacon after it's cooked if you prefer.
- Remove the bacon from the skillet onto a plate lined with paper towels. Remove the bacon grease from the pan leaving 2 teaspoons behind to cook the sweet potato and eggs in.
- Add in the diced sweet potato, chili powder and cumin. Sauté for approximately 2 minutes or until the sweet potato is cooked through. Remove the sweet potato from the skillet onto the plate with the bacon.
- Add the egg mixture to the skillet, adding a little more of the bacon grease if needed, and scramble the eggs. Just before the eggs are set add in the bacon, sweet potato and shredded cheese.
- Once the cheese has melted serve in the charred or warmed corn tortillas, topped with cilantro, more cheese, salsa and hot sauce.
