Blueberry Sweet Potato breakfast casserole - Paleo, Whole30

When I am doing Whole30, I get tired of eating eggs! Who doesn't? Believe it or not, this is what I eat when I am tried of eggs. Even though it has eggs in it, it doesn't taste like an egg dish to me.


Cooking Equipment

12-inch cast iron skillet, seasoned

Ingredients

up to 1/4 cup ghee (if you're not on whole30 you can use butter)

2-3 medium sweet potatoes, peeled and dices in half inch cubes

1/2 tsp salt

1 apple, diced

5 large eggs

1 cup canned coconut milk 

1/4 cup chopped walnuts or almonds

1/2 cup blueberries fresh or frozen


Preheat oven to 325 degrees. On your stove top, heat half the ghee in the skillet add your sweet potatoes and sprinkle with salt. Cook sweet potatoes until they are almost soft, 7-8 minutes and then add the apple. Cook for 3-4 minutes minutes until the sweet potatoes and the apples are soft. While cooking your apples, warm the coconut milk in the microwave for 15-20 seconds to partially melt it. Beat your eggs slightly with coconut milk. There will be some clumps of coconut milk in the eggs, this is fine as it will melt more when you pour it in the skillet.


Sprinkle nuts and blueberries over the sweet potatoes and then pour the egg mixture. Stir to incorporate with the sweet potatoes. Any clumps of coconut milk should melt, take care to mix it in with the eggs.


Place the skillet in the oven and bake until the eggs are done, 15-20 minutes.
