Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Step 1: Preheat oven to 400°F. Toss 2 medium diced peeled sweet potatoes with 1 tbsp olive oil, 1/2 tsp smoked paprika, 1/4 tsp cinnamon, 1/4 tsp salt, and a pinch of black pepper on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
  2. Step 2: Roast for 20-25 minutes, flipping once halfway, until tender and golden at the edges.
  3. Step 3: While potatoes roast, heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add 1/4 cup finely chopped onion and cook for 3 minutes until translucent and slightly golden.
  4. Step 4: Push onions to one side of the skillet, crack 2 large eggs into the center, and cook sunny-side up for 3-4 minutes until whites are set but yolks are still runny.
