sweet potato breakfast sandwich

1/27/2019

After a long week interning in critical care, I decided to do something extra to celebrate the weekend. Something I always do after a long week is go to either Trader Joes or Wegmans (sometimes both) and purchase random items- and then brainstorm what  I can do to make something out of it. This week- I bought sweet potatoes. I ended up making a sweet potato breakfast sandwich in a few simple steps. Instructions below: 






Yield: 3 
Ingredients:
- 1 medium, round sweet potato
-  2 eggs
- 2 alfresco's Chicken sausages ( I like this brand because it  has a chicken sausage option and is lower in saturated fat, sodium, and is made without preservatives) 
- 1/2 avocado 
- 1 tbsp olive oil

Instructions:
1) Slice the sweet potato into 1/2 -1 inch rounded pieces. Coat in olive oil and bake at 400F for 15 minutes.
2) Microwave or pan-fry chicken sausages. Cut into 1/2 inch pieces. 
3) Prepare eggs on stove top, omelette style  (this makes it easy to cut out for the sandwich, and you can add cheese or vegetables as you wish)
4) Slice avocado
5) Put together your sandwiches and enjoy!
