This hearty one-pot breakfast/brunch option is perfect to start your day off right. It’s entirely gluten-free, dairy-free, and refined sugar-free, so it’s likely everyone can enjoy it. Japanese sweet potatoes seem to work the best for this recipe due to their mild level of sweetness, but any type of sweet potato you prefer will work well. Japanese sweet potatoes feel like white potato texture-wise, have purple skin, and are white on the inside. This dish also works well as a side, if you want to serve it over dinner. Enjoy!
