Ingredients
For the bowls:
- 2 tablespoons olive oil divided
- 1 medium sweet potato finely diced
- 1 small onion finely diced
- 1/4 teaspoon chili powder
- salt to taste
- pepper to taste
- 1 (15-ounce) can pinto beans Southwestern-style
- 2 eggs
Optional, for serving:
- 2/3 cup pico de gallo
- 1/2 avocado sliced
- cilantro leaves to taste
- hot sauce to taste
- lime wedges to taste
Directions
- In a medium-sized skillet over medium heat, add 1 tablespoon of the olive oil.
- Once the oil is shimmering, add the sweet potatoes and the onions.
- Season the sweet potato mixture with the chili powder, the salt, and the pepper.
- Cook, stirring occasionally, until the potatoes soften and the onions begin to caramelize, about 10-15 minutes. Alternatively, you can roast the mixture in the oven at 400 degrees F until the sweet potatoes are tender, about 20 minutes.
- Once the sweet potatoes are tender and the onions have started to caramelize, divide the mixture evenly into two bowls.
- Using the same skillet, heat the Southwestern-style pinto beans over medium heat.
- Once the beans are heated, evenly divide them into the two bowls.
- Wipe the skillet down, then heat the remaining olive oil over medium heat. Cook the eggs in your preferred style.
- Top each bowl with 1 of the eggs.
- Serve immediately with your favorite toppings.
