sweet potato breakfast bowl

I am all about bowls. My favorite meals are ones that are little bits of different foods that when all together are amazing! I made this bowl for breakfast on Sunday, but it would be a great lunch or dinner too!

Speck is an italian cured ham, just like prosciutto. You can easily swap it out for prosciutto or regular old bacon. It adds a great smokiness to the bowl, so if you can get your hands on some I would definitely suggest it!

I like my eggs scrambled, over easy, sunny side up, poached etc etc etc. I know some people are weird about runny yolks, but I am a HUGE fan. I usually cook over easy eggs because they’re easier for me than sunny side up. I went with sunny side up for this recipe.. to be honest they’re just prettier!

If you have a hard time getting your whites to set try covering your pan.
