This breakfast sweet potato casserole is perfect for a single leftover sweet potato, so use up those extra potatoes in this hearty breakfast.
Hi y’all! I’m Wendy from Around My Family Table and I’m so excited to be joining Aubrey and the rest of the gang once a month here on Real Housemoms. I’m so excited for this adventure and can’t wait to share some easy recipes with y’all.
I share mostly-from-scratch recipes that are family friendly and tips for getting in and out of the kitchen fast over on AMFT and can’t wait share my love of food with y’all.
I love baking up a ton of sweet potatoes at the beginning of the week and then using them in various recipes all week long. They keep nicely in the fridge for about a week so it makes getting supper {or breakfast in this case} to the table in a flash.
This recipe is perfect for a single leftover baked sweet potato, like the day after a big holiday meal…use up those potatoes or just make an extra one at supper the night before and then use it for this hearty breakfast.
We almost always have a hearty breakfast like this on the weekends. It’s something our family loves to do. We sleep in, have a huge breakfast, and then head out for a day of family fun. So have a lazy morning, whip up a big pan of this casserole and enjoy. If you prefer a sweet breakfast, then you have to check out my favorite…Sweet Potato Donuts with Maple Glaze. They are amazing!
