Brussels Sprout and Sweet Potato Egg Skillet

breakfastskiillet4 I've been getting into the spirit of the season recently by listening to holiday music only, watching National Lampoons Christmas Vacation, chopping down our Christmas tree, and making delicious breakfasts that we can enjoy while staring out at a snow covered Tumbleweed Farm. christmastree Taylor chopped our tree down and Henry and I dragged it back to the house where we proceeded to blast Christmas music, drink bloody marys, and eat this delicious breakfast skilled. It was the perfect morning. breakfastskiillet3 Taylor and I don't normally drink bloody marys on typical mornings. However, special occasions like putting up our first christmas tree in our new house calls for a celebration brunch.  These egg skillets were divine.  The eggs themselves were extra delicious since they came from our lovely neighbors chickens. In my opinion, there is nothing on earth tastier than a farm fresh egg. Thanks Jess and Tyler! sweetpotatoskillet56 This breakfast skillet could not be easier to whip up. The combination of brussels sprouts and sweet potatoes is a match made in heaven. A little garlic, onion, spices and delicious eggs takes this dish to a whole new level. Pour a bloody mary and dig in!
