Introduction

This Sweet Potato Breakfast Bowl is a vibrant and nutritious way to start your day. Combining crispy air-fried sweet potatoes, fresh spinach, creamy avocado, and perfectly cooked eggs, it’s a satisfying meal full of flavor and texture.

A white bowl contains two sunny-side-up eggs with slightly runny light orange yolks, sprinkled with black pepper and some seasoning on top. Next to the eggs are small pieces of browned sausage, golden-brown roasted sweet potato sticks, and a small pile of cooked, dark green spinach leaves. To the right, part of another white bowl can be seen, filled with roasted sweet potato sticks topped with bright green mashed avocado and sprinkled with black seeds. Both bowls sit on a blue textured cloth, with a white marbled surface visible around the edges. photo taken with an iphone --ar 4:5 --v 7

Ingredients

4 free range eggs
2 sweet potatoes
2 cups fresh baby spinach
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 pinch salt
1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
1/2 teaspoon onion powder
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 avocado
Salt, to taste
Ground black pepper, to taste

Instructions

Step 1: In a medium bowl, combine diced sweet potatoes, olive oil, a pinch of salt, ground black pepper, onion powder, and garlic powder. Mix thoroughly to coat the sweet potatoes evenly.
Step 2: Place the sweet potatoes in an air fryer basket and cook at 375 ℉ for 25 minutes. Shake the basket around the 10-minute mark to ensure even cooking.
Step 3: Meanwhile, heat a non-stick pan over medium heat and lightly coat with oil. Once hot, crack the eggs into the pan, season with salt and black pepper to taste, and cover the pan.
Step 4: Cook the eggs until the whites are set but the yolks remain runny, about 3–4 minutes.
Step 5: Divide the cooked sweet potatoes and fresh baby spinach evenly between two bowls. Top each bowl with two sunny-side-up eggs and half an avocado.
Step 6: Serve immediately. For extra protein, add sausage or veggie links on the side if desired.

Tips & Variations

Try swapping avocado for sliced cherry tomatoes or roasted bell peppers for a different flavor.
You can roast the sweet potatoes in the oven at 400 ℉ for 30 minutes if you don’t have an air fryer.
Cook eggs to your preferred doneness—over-easy or scrambled work well too.
Add a sprinkle of your favorite fresh herbs, like cilantro or parsley, for extra freshness.

Storage

Store any leftover sweet potatoes and spinach mixture separately in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat the sweet potatoes in the oven or air fryer to retain crispness. It’s best to cook eggs fresh, but you can microwave scrambled eggs gently if needed.
