Jalapeno scrambled eggs have a nice kick of spice to jump-start your day! Serve with pan-fried sweet potatoes sprinkled with cinnamon for healthy carbohydrates to keep you fueled for hours!
This is a delicious and simple paleo breakfast recipe to kick-start your day. You get protein, healthy fats, a green veggie, a good quality carbohydrate and the metabolism stimulating effects from cinnamon in this tasty breakfast meal.
This easy healthy breakfast is great on its own, but for a complete meal, serve some fresh fruit along with it, like my Fresh Fruit Kabobs.
Precook your sweet potatoes (whole) the night before, either in the microwave or oven. Wrap individually and store in the refrigerator. This way, in the morning you only have to slice and lightly brown them in the frying pan for fast cooking.

Wow!!! Love the breakfast.I can’t stand the taste of coconut oil, so I am possibly going to sub that with cooking spray, but I am definitely trying these.

I love eggs and sweet potatoes. I didn’t use the jalapeño, but it was still absolutely delicious!
