This may be the best breakfast idea I’ve thought of this year.

Baked sweet potato fries. Sunny side up eggs. Bacon. Avocados. Cotija cheese. Anything your little heart desires.

This, my friends, is why I love the weekends so much! I get to sleep in a bit, relax with some coffee and enjoy amazing food without worrying about getting to work on time.

Note: this meal is exactly what you’re body craves after a night involving a drink or two. ?

You may think this looks a little indulgent, but let’s break it down.

Let’s talk about the sweet potato fries. They’re baked, only require one tablespoon of olive oil to crisp ’em up and they’re pretty damn healthy. Just sprinkle them with some salt, pepper and garlic powder and you’re good to go.

When there’s 5 minutes left of baking time for the sweet potatoes, I like to prepare my toppings.

Let’s talk about the eggs, the the main source of protein in this dish. I decided to leave them sunny side up, but you could poach them or make them over easy. The important thing (at least for me) is that it has a runny yolk. That way, when you break it open, the fries get coated in the yolk and the dish literally goes from average to decadent. There’s just something about a runny yolk that makes everything better.

When the eggs are ready, carefully place them on top of the baked fries. Speaking from experience, breaking open the yolk accidentally is very easy to do. You’ll notice in the photos below that the egg yolk in the top left corner accidentally broke open. I must have set it on top of a pointy fry and bam. I was super sad about it, but what can you do. Life happens.

Also, I have got to work on my egg cookery. I’m just your average home cook so I just want to point out that these sunny side up eggs aren’t perfect by any means. I did, however, just read this quick little wiki-how article on how to make the perfect sunny side up eggs and it’s so helpful. I’ll definitely be putting those instructions into practice next time.

In addition to the sunny side up eggs, I added some of my favorite nacho toppings like bacon, diced tomatoes, avocados, cilantro, jalapeƱo slices, and cotija cheese.

But don’t let what I added stop you from being creative. This is your moment! Feel free to add any of your favorite toppings. Here are some suggestions.

  • corn
  • black beans
  • pinto beans
  • sour cream
  • hot sauce
  • green onions
  • guacamole
  • more cheese

It’s all up to you!

    Hey, I love that one of the eggs broke a little. It makes for such a more interesting picture and, yes, more appetizing, too. Love what you did with the sweet potatoes, egg, and accoutrements combination. I gotta try this. JalapeƱo slices, yum.
