Earl Cooks Eggs Over Sweet Potatoes & Green Beans...WHAT?

There are just some things I never thought I would cook. As a child, if you had told me I would one day like green beans, I would have said "never", but I do. If you had told me I would have sweet potatoes more than once a year and without marshmallows most of the time, I would have said "no way"! Today I am going to tell you about what may be the best use of Thanksgiving leftovers I have tried this year, AND THAT INCLUDES A GRILLED HAM & CHEESE SANDWICH!
I may seem like I have lost my mind or run out of ideas, (but I have plenty of ideas). But if you read my blog to any extent, you will know I love breakfast. I made breakfast for my grandboys for many years before school. But I would make it for them...I didn't eat my own breakfasts. I wanted them to be more than fuel, I wanted them to be SPECIAL. So I would wait until I could eat breakfast out and enjoy having someone make it for ME! I am not a breakfast snob. It need not be exotic or hard to prepare it just needs to be 1)Tasty and B)Satisfying. No cereal, no pop-tarts, no pastry (okay, I like pastry, but only as PART of a better meal). I don't know who thought up a continental breakfast but there is a reason they are FREE!

Onward to breakfast...I had some leftovers from Thanksgiving, Sweet Potatoes "Turkey" made and green beans that I, yes I, made! The green beans had bacon & cheese, two breakfast stars and the Sweet Potatoes are sweet and potatoes are another breakfast star, so I thought "put them together and top them with steamed eggs and see what we have"! I started with a non-stick, heavy aluminum pan and let it heat up. I then placed a good helping of beans on one side of the pan and sweet potatoes on the other and let them heat through. The brown sugar from the potatoes should caramelize nicely. I didn't use any of the marshmallows. When heated through and caramelized, add 2 eggs, (making little divots in the potatoes and beans with a spoon). I had to add 3 eggs because I broke one. The moisture from the veggies will generate steam if you place a lid on top, and the eggs turn out GREAT! I always add pepper to my eggs, but no salt was needed.The yolks were runny and perfect and added a creaminess that brought the whole dish together. The caramelized sweet potatoes reminded me of syrup when you have pancakes and eggs or French toast Try it! If I liked it you will!
