They say breakfast is the most important meal of the day, so why not enjoy it!?
Friends, are you tired of the same old breakfast routine? We feel the same way! Sometimes you just need a break from cereal, eggs or (in super busy times) grabbing some sort of protein bar before you run out the door. Well, we are here to change your breakfast game with our paleo dish of the week.
Our loaded breakfast sweet potatoes are not only super filling and nutritious, but are wonderfully delicious too! Plus, it’s a fun way to change up the way you think and eat sweet potatoes.

Add to that the antioxidants from your fruits and the protein from the almond butter, and you will be fueled to take on whatever comes your way!
This recipes is paleo-, dairy free-, vegan-, and gluten free-friendly! So even the pickiest of eaters will enjoy it. It’s also such a fun recipe to get creative with.
