Before going veg I used to live off of eggs and yogurt for breakfast (not together... that would probably be gross). Actually what I was going to eat for breakfast was a slight concern of mine when I made the decision to forgo my once beloved animal proteins, since every morning I would have a bowl of oatmeal, and either two or three eggs (for a brief period egg whites) with cheese, or a greek yogurt and fruit.
But I got creative and found my new favorite breakfast... sweet potatoes!
With so many different ways they can be prepared, I'm happy to say my morning egg and dairy void has been filled :) (P.s. This also would make a great side dish)
