Sweet Potato and Greens Breakfast Saute

A whole box of spinach in my family by 8am???

Yes please!

We do breakfast pretty big in my family. We don’t eat much after dinnertime most days, so we need a recharge at breakfast!

This is one of our favorite breakfast sautés and mama can feel good about getting all that green down her family for a full day of school, work, and play!

Don’t be intimidated! This breakfast comes together so fast and is very simple to do!

Tips:

• Do all your chopping the night before! This cooks up fast anyway, but even faster if you have it all ready to dump into the pan when you wake up!
• Spinach is one of the produce items I do buy only organic. Greens are heavily pesticided and are on the dirty dozen list yearly. I have to pick and choose what I can afford organic on our budget and this is just one I don’t compromise on.
• Change up the veggies to what is in season!
• Make it an egg scramble instead of using the bacon if that is what you have! Just sauté the veggies until they are done and add a few scrambled up eggs and stir around until cooked through.
• This amount fed my family for one meal (my toddlers had 2 toddler sized platefuls though!). Double up if you have a larger family or if you want leftovers.
• Don’t forget the toddlers! As my husband and I eat, so do the littles. When you cook veggies the right way – they taste SO (so!) good! My girls inhale this breakfast!
• Read THIS on why breakfast cereals are toxic. I know it is an American staple…but there are so many other choices – I hope to show you that over the course of my writing here on RGN!
• Read THIS on why you shouldn’t be afraid of friendly fats like pastured pork fat.
• Read THIS on why pastured pork products are more superior in nourishment.

How else do you get green down your family during the day?
