This is one of my favorite ways to start the day…sweet potato scramble! It’s easily adapted for all the diets and taste buds in your home. Use the sweet potato and veggies as a base and add in fixings based on preference. If you prefer your potatoes softer, add in 2-3 TBS of bone broth or a frozen bone broth ice cube towards the end of cooking.
