12 servings

  • 3 medium sweet potatoes, peeled
  • 1 teaspoon salt, plus more to taste
  • ½ teaspoon pepper, plus more to taste
  • ½ teaspoon paprika
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 cup shredded cheese blend
  • 2 small eggs, beaten
  • ¼ red bell pepper, seeded and diced
  • ½ cup small broccoli floret
  • ½ cup cherry tomato, halved
  • ¼ cup shredded cheese blend
  • ¼ red bell pepper, seeded and diced
  • ¼ cup onion, diced
  • 1 ½ strips bacon, cooked and diced
  • 3 small eggs
  • 1 ½ strips bacon, cooked and diced

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
  • With a mandolin or a sharp knife, carefully cut the sweet potatoes into ¹⁄₁₆-inch (1 mm) thick slices.
  • Place the sweet potato slices in a large bowl, add the salt, pepper, paprika, garlic powder, and onion powder, and toss the potatoes until evenly coated.
  • Let sit for about 20 minutes, until water releases from the sweet potatoes and the slices are soft and flexible.
  • Brush the cups of a 12-cup muffin tin with the olive oil.
  • Arrange 5 sweet potato slices around the sides of a muffin cup, overlapping slightly. Place 1 slice on the bottom to create a flower. Repeat with the remaining potato slices. Sprinkle a bit of cheese in the bottom of each cup.
  • Bake for 10 minutes until the cheese has melted and the sweet potato slices are tender.
  • Remove the potato cups from the oven and reduce the oven temperature to 300°F (150°C).
  • Add your desired fillings to the cups. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Bake for another 20-25 minutes, or until the eggs are completely cooked and/or the vegetables are tender. Let cool for about 5 minutes.
  • Serve warm.
  • Enjoy!
