serves 1
Servings: 0

Ingredients

  • *1 tablespoon organic extra virgin coconut oil (or use olive oil)
  • *2 handfuls of chopped organic greens I used a mixture of dandelion greens and Tuscan/Lacinato kale
  • *2 eggs preferably organic and free range
  • *1 small or 1/2 large organic sweet potato baked or steamed (or microwaved, in a pinch) and then sliced and drizzled with a little coconut oil, if desired
  • *coarse sea salt and freshly ground black pepper- to taste
  • *any other seasonings you like ex. a squeeze of fresh lemon juice for the greens hot sauce, etc- optional

Instructions

  • 1. Heat oil in a cast-iron skillet. When the pan is very hot, add the greens. Cook for several minutes, stirring sporadically, allowing them to crisp in the hot pan.
  • 2. Break the eggs into the pan over the greens and turn the heat to very low. Cover the pan and allow the eggs to cook for 3-5 minutes, until done to your liking.
  • 3. Using a large spatula, transfer the greens with the cooked eggs on top to your plate. Season to taste with salt, pepper, etc., and serve with sliced sweet potato.
