Happy Thursday all.  Today is a very exciting day.  This is the day I get the first installment of my CSA!
This is what I’m getting:
Yellow Squash,
Bok Choy,
Yukina Spinach,
Cucumber (Slicing & Pickling),
Bell Green Pepper,
Cubanelle Pepper,
Green Beans,
Golden Globe Radish.
Arugula
I already have a bunch of recipes I want to try so stay tuned.
With all these veggies on the way I had to use up what I already had on hand.  One of the items was a bunch of organic sweet potatoes so I decided to revisit my sweet potato and egg over easy idea and simply use some garlic seasoning this time. 
Instead of microwaving it the next morning I popped the potato in the toaster oven on 300F while I showered to heat up and then set the top to broil as I was cooking the egg just to get the top nice and hot and bubbly.

Breakfast Potato
Serves 2
**3 WW Points (see full nutrition info below)

Ingredients

1 sweet potato
2 Tbsp light cream cheese
Garlic seasoning, to taste (I used Tastefully Simple’s Garlic Garlic)
2 eggs
Coarse sea salt, fresh ground pepper, to taste

Directions

(The night before.)



1. Preheat the oven to 400 F.


2. Poke holes on all sides of the potato with a fork. Spray canola oil then rub salt and pepper over all sides. Wrap in foil.


3. Bake for 45 minutes to 1 hour until soft. Cut in half lengthwise and scoop out centers. Once it cools a bit, mix the cream cheese and seasoning. Stuff each half with the mixture.


(Next Morning)


4. Preheat oven to 300F and reheat sweet potato for 30 minutes. 
**Alternatively, potato can be reheat reheated in the microwave until just warm then popped in the toaster oven on broil while the egg cooks. Crack each egg into the skillet, season with salt and pepper and as the whites begin to firm enough to flip the eggs, flip once and cook for an additional 20 -30 seconds, just until the yolks firm a bit.



5. Spray a small skillet with cooking spray and heat over medium heat.


6. Slide the eggs on top of the heated potatoes.

  1. Interesting. I never think of potatoes in the morning. My hubby loves hashbrowns and things like that though so he'd love this.

  2. This is one great breakfast. I wish I had something like this. I love sweet potatoes.

  3. I am so happy you are getting a CSA. My dad is getting one for himself in Maui..today is their first day too! :)

  4. I am so stinking jealous! My CSA doesn't start until the end of Nov. I cannot wait. Breakfast looked delicious. I love sweet potatoes & haven't had them with eggs yet. This is something I am going to definitely try.
