YIELD: 1 serving
INGREDIENTS
½ small sweet potato, diced (approx. ½ cup)
1 stalk (approx. 2 tbsp.) green onion

2 leaves fresh basil
Salt and pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Pre-heat a skillet to medium high heat.
Add ½ -1 tsp. extra virgin olive oil.
Lightly cook the potato (stirring frequently) & season with salt and pepper to taste. (approx. 4-5 mins.)
In a separate bowl combine 9 tbsp. liquid egg whites and 1 whole egg.
Add the chopped green onion and mix thoroughly.
Pour the egg mixture into the pan, over and around the sweet potato, adjusting the sweet potato to distribute evenly.
Cook until the eggs are no longer runny. (approx. 3 mins.)
Tear 2 basil leaves and add to the pan (or get creative and use cilantro or another herb of choice).
