Course: Breakfast
Cuisine: American

Ingredients
  

  • 2 pieces thick cut bacon
  • 1 lb. ground beef
  • 1 large sweet potato weighing about 1 lb.
  • 1 green apple
  • 1/2 cup broth
  • 1 tsp. salt
  • 1 tsp. fresh rosemary or 1/2 tsp. dried
  • 3-4 eggs
  • 4 oz. goat cheese about 1/2 cup

Equipment

  • Large skillet

Method
 

  1. Cook bacon over medium high heat in a large cast iron or stainless steel skillet. Remove from skillet and place on paper towel, leaving drippings in pan. Add ground beef and cook, stirring occasionally, until browned and cooked through. Remove from pan.
  2. While the beef cooks, peel and dice the sweet potato into small pieces. Dice the green apple as well (I like to leave the skin on; you can peel it if you like). At this point you can remove some of the drippings from the pan or leave them. Add the sweet potato and green apple and cook over medium high heat, only stirring once or twice, until it develops some color, about 3 minutes. Add in broth, salt, and rosemary and simmer, covered, for about 5 minutes until sweet potatoes are tender.
  3. Stir in the cooked beef and crumble in the bacon. Make 3-4 wells in the skillet and crack in the eggs. Crumble the goat cheese on top. Cook the eggs until the whites are just set, about 5 minutes (the whites will continue to cook a little when you remove the pan from the heat). This is a complete meal in itself, but feel free to serve with fruit or sourdough bread.
