Ingredients
- 1 tbsp avocado oil
- 1 sweet potato diced into ¼” cubes
- 1/2 onion finely diced
- 1 green bell pepper finely diced
- salt and pepper to taste
- 4 oz chorizo
- 4 eggs

- Heat a cast iron skillet over medium high heat and add the avocado oil. Once heated, add the sweet potatoes and onions. Saute for about 5-10 minutes until the sweet potatoes begin to soften. Add a pinch of salt and pepper.
- Add the peppers and cook for another 5 minutes, stirring frequently. Once the potatoes are cooked through, push the potato and vegetable mixture to the side of the pan and add the chorizo and cook until cooked through - about 5 minutes.
- Once the chorizo is cooked mix the sweet potato mixture with the chorizo until combined. Make four small wells in the mixture for the eggs.

- Remove from the heat and garnish with fresh parsley or cilantro if desired.
