Paleo Breakfast. Yum! In my opinion, there is nothing better than breakfast foods. I love the weekends because my honey and I get to go on breakfast/brunch dates and order all sorts of yummy goodies (usually Paleo approved…but sometimes I do splurge a little and get myself a menu item that is not so Paleo…shh).
It’s such a wonderful time; we’ll order coffee and get some good hours of conversation in.
Currently, we are hooked on breakfast potatoes. They are filled with delicious spices and roasted to perfection. We’ll always get those along with any order. Sadly, the breakfast potatoes we get are not sweet potatoes…making them a non-Paleo item. Being picky and loving to figure recipes out the “Paleo way”, I decided to nail a breakfast sweet potato recipe (I added other menu items to the recipe as well, because breakfast potatoes are even better when accompanied by other foods). Check it out and tell me what you think.
Here’s a visual depiction of the steps for this recipe:
Having a good, solid breakfast in the morning is an amazing way to start our day. We feel fueled, energized, satisfied. It allows us to give our bodies enough of what they need so they can perform for us well the rest of your day. To this breakfast you can add a nice side of sautéed greens or a nice side salad if you want. Pair it with a nice cup of tea or coffee, and you’re good to go. Hope you love it as much as we did at home. These breakfast potatoes are truly wonderful. Enjoy.

Ingredients
For the breakfast potatoes
- 3 medium size sweet potatoes, cubed

- Cook the bacon: place a skillet over medium heat, and add bacon once hot; cook for about 4 minutes each side. Transfer bacon to a plate, keeping leftover bacon grease in the skillet.
- Prepare the eggs: in a bowl, whisk eggs vigorously for a minimum of 30 seconds, and cook in skillet with bacon grease on low heat; move eggs around with a spatula to make sure they don’t stick and that they come out nice and fluffy.

This actually looks so delicious. I’m a huge breakfast lover as well. This will fit in perfectly with my morning meals.
Very glad I stumbled upon your site. I am going to make great use of it.
How does the bacon taste when you microwave it?
Hi Shane! I am glad you found Amazing Paleo! Hope it gives you great ideas for your everyday meals! 🙂 We love microwaving bacon because it is an easy cleanup; we like its taste and how crunchy it gets. However, if you have a preferred way of cooking it, stick to that method!
I’ll give it a shot. I’m always open to try new things. Plus, I love my bacon crunchy!
I thought sweet potatoes weren’t paleo?
Sweet potatoes are a root vegetable and are most definitely approved by the Paleolithic diet. Consume these freely if you’re living the Paleo lifestyle 😉
