Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 425 degrees F.
  • In an 11x7 baking dish, add olive oil, and coat the bottom and sides of pan.
  • Add the shredded sweet potato, and sprinkle with salt and pepper to taste.
  • Cover with foil, and bake covered for 30 minutes.
  • While the sweet potatoes are baking, add chopped bacon into a large frying pan, and fry over medium heat to desired doneness. Remove bacon from pan and divide into 2 bowls evenly.
  • Drain excess bacon grease, and then add onion to the frying pan, and fry lightly for 3-4 minutes in the bacon grease.
  • Add mushrooms and kale, and continue to saute for about 5 minutes until softened.
  • In a large bowl, add eggs, almond milk, coconut milk, salt and peppers. Whisk until combined.
  • Add the sauteed kale and mushrooms and half of the bacon into the egg mixture, and stir to combine.
  • When the sweet potatoes are done, remove the foil and allow to cool for 5-10 minutes. Using hands, press the sweet potato down in the pan and around the edges to form a crust.
  • Fill the sweet potato crust with the egg, bacon and vegetable mixture.
  • Cover with foil, and return to the oven for 35 minutes. Uncover, and bake uncovered for 8 additional minutes.
  • Serve garnished with herbs, salsa, or your favorite hot sauce.
