Ingredients
  

For the Bowl
  • 2 medium sweet potatoes peeled and cubed
  • 4 cups kale stems removed and chopped
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil for roasting sweet potatoes
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder for seasoning
  • 1 teaspoon salt to taste
  • 1 teaspoon black pepper to taste
  • 4 large eggs for poaching
For Serving
  • 1/4 cup feta cheese crumbled, optional
  • 1 tablespoon hot sauce optional, for seasoning

Method
 

Preparation Steps
  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. In a large mixing bowl, toss the cubed sweet potatoes with olive oil, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper until well coated.
  3. Spread the sweet potatoes evenly on a baking sheet and roast in the oven for about 25 minutes, or until they are tender and slightly caramelized, stirring halfway through.
  4. While the sweet potatoes are roasting, heat a large skillet over medium heat. Add the chopped kale and sauté for about 5-7 minutes, until wilted and tender. Season with additional salt and pepper to taste.
  5. In a separate pot, bring water to a gentle simmer. Crack each egg into a small bowl and gently slide into the simmering water. Poach the eggs for about 3-4 minutes, or until the whites are set but the yolks are still runny.
  6. To assemble the breakfast bowls, divide the roasted sweet potatoes and sautéed kale among four bowls. Top each bowl with a poached egg.
  7. Sprinkle crumbled feta cheese and drizzle with hot sauce if desired. Serve immediately.

Notes

This breakfast bowl is versatile; feel free to add other ingredients such as avocado slices or your favorite nuts for added texture and flavor. You can also prepare the sweet potatoes and kale in advance and reheat them in the morning for a quicker breakfast.
