Ingredients

1 large sweet potato, sliced lengthwise 1/4-in thick
2 tbsp extra-virgin olive oil
1/2 tsp kosher salt
1/4 tsp black pepper, freshly ground
1 ripe avocado, halved and pitted
2 tsp fresh lemon juice
2 large eggs
1/4 tsp red pepper flakes
2 tbsp fresh cilantro (or parsley), roughly chopped

Instructions

1

Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2

Brush both sides of the 1 sliced lengthwise 1/4-in thick large sweet potato slices with 2 tbsp extra-virgin olive oil and season with 1/2 tsp kosher salt and 1/4 tsp freshly ground black pepper. Arrange in a single layer on the prepared sheet.
3

Roast for 20 to 25 minutes, flipping once halfway through, until the slices are tender when pierced and lightly golden on both sides.
4

While the sweet potato roasts, scoop the flesh from 1 halved and pitted ripe avocado into a small bowl. Add 2 tsp fresh lemon juice and a pinch of salt. Mash to your desired texture.
5

Cook 2 large eggs to your liking in a small nonstick skillet over medium heat with a drop of olive oil - sunny-side-up or over-easy both work well.
6

Spread the mashed avocado generously over the roasted sweet potato slices. Top each with a fried egg, a sprinkle of 1/4 tsp red pepper flakes, and 2 tbsp roughly chopped fresh cilantro (or parsley). Serve immediately.
