I just wanted to share my yummy breakfast with you. I am always experimenting with breakfast foods and this one is a winner. I sauteed (I used pan spray and added a little bit of water as needed) 1 cup of cubed sweet potato and diced onion, added in 1/2 of an Old World Roasted pepper and onion with Asiago cheese sausage (Sam's club), salt, pepper and a little cayenne. Then topped it all off with a fried egg sunny side up. Oh, it was good and only 276 calories. Kind of like a hash, only MUCH healthier.

    Sounds very good. I noticed that you may be from Mo. God bless the folks and the recovery effort going on in Joplin.

    Stingray, yes we are 50 miles down I-44 from Joplin. I have many friends there. It is truly, truly unbelievable the utter devastation they have suffered. I have never seen anything even close to it in my life and I have lived in tornado ally since I was born. But the attitude of survivors and the tenacity they have shown is also unbelievable. Thanks for mentioning it. I know they appreciate all the prayers.

    I just made this for my wife and I for supper, I loved it, she would have preferred the sweet potatoes on the side :ohwell:
    I used the following:

    1 medium sweet potato (180g)
    1/4 medium onion (79g)
    1 samsclub fire roasted peppers and onions with asiago cheese chicken sausage
    2 medium eggs (111g)

    I cut the sweet potato into 1/4 in disks and then quartered those and threw them in the frying pan with some water on medium heat. Next, I cut up the onion and added that to the sweet potato. I then cut the chicken sausage into 1/4 disks, halved those, and added those when the sweet potato and onion were about done. Lastly, I stirred the eggs in a separate bowl and added them when the sweet potato and onion were to my liking.

    When I entered mine into the food diary, it came up as 266 calories, but who knows when it comes to using veggies in there.

    Well, look at you! Getting all efficient and writing it out like that! I am glad you enjoyed it. The difference is probably in the way we entered the ingredients. I'll go with 266 instead of 276. : )

    :laugh:

    I figured I would pass along actual portions. Of course, the entire reason why I did that was so that I could relay my thoughts on the portions, which I completely forgot about. :laugh: I can't go back and edit it now, oh well, I'll add them here where no one will read them.

    Mine was for two people, which I thought was a good amount. I also made 9 stalks of asparagus to go along with it (more to use up than anything). I think it could have used another egg (or two) per serving since it was all mixed together and you couldn't taste the egg. Probably could have also used a little more onion, but it was still really good for a first try.

    I was just wondering if it would taste good with soy chorizo!

    Recipe sounds delish, thanks for sharing!
