HIGH PROTEIN STUFFED BREAKFAST SWEET POTATOES
This is another healthy breakfast idea thats so easy and so good.
It comes in at 410 calories, 31g protein, 28 net carbs, and will keep you full for hours from the slow digesting carbs, fiber, and all the protein.
If you are watching carbs closely, feel free to use spaghetti squash as your base.
Here is how I made it (makes 4 servings)
1.Pop 4 regular sized sweet potatoes (about 125g each) into the oven at 350°F for 70-80 mins. The cook time depends on thickness, so if you’re using a larger potato, just got a bit longer.
2.When the sweet potato is roasted, let them cool for a minute or so. Then cut them open. You can mash the inside with a fork, or you can eat it as is. This is where you can top it up with your favorite toppings.
3.I added 1.5 servings cottage cheese (2% Good Culture), half a thinly sliced avocado, and 1 egg on top of each sweet potato.
4.You can garnish with fresh cilantro, hot sauce, or my everyday cilantro sauce from my Shredhappens cookbook, or any kind of sauce you like. I added some fresh herbs (I love fresh mint and cilantro here), some everything bagel seasoning, and some garlic chili crisp.
As always, modify any of the serving sizes as you wish based on your own goals. You can add more egg, more cottage cheese, use a smaller sweet potato, not add avocado. You do you!
ENJOY!
