Bacon and Eggs with Sweet Potato Noodles

Ingredients:
  • 4 slices Whole30-compliant bacon
  • 1 small red onion, chopped
  • 2 tbsp clarified butter, ghee, or extra-virgin olive oil
  • 2 packages sweet potato noodles or 2 medium sweet potatoes, peeled and spiralized
  • 2 tbsp chopped fresh thyme
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper
  • 4 eggs
Directions:
  1. In a large skillet, cook the bacon over medium heat until crisp. Transfer to a paper-towel and drain. Leave 2 tbsp bacon grease in skillet.
  2. Add the onions to the skillet, cook until softened. Add butter and melt.
  3. Add the sweet potato noodles and season with thyme, salt, and pepper. Gently toss to combine, then cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, 5 minutes. Crumble the bacon, and sprinkle over noodles.
  4. Make four indentations in the noodles that are about 2 inches apart. Carefully crack one egg into each indentation.
  5. Cover and cook until the whites are set and the yolks start to thicken, or to desired doneness.
