We love this sweet potato breakfast prep, with sausage, eggs, and spinach. It's easy!
Meal preppers around these parts definitely have a thing for sweet potatoes. And sweet potato nutrition might have something to do with it. They're loaded with fiber, vitamins, and minerals and add a little sweetness to your meal without adding sugar. In terms of their flavor profile, sweet potatoes also provide a great contrast to other ingredients, especially those that are savory.
