Sweet Potatoes and Eggs

So I am trying out some whole30 breakfasts options because I don't love eggs. I only like them scrambled and with ketchup and other stuff with them. So one way I like them is with tater tots. So this is my whole30 version of that. I was making this for me and my one-year-old so you can up the amounts depending on how many you're feeding and how much you love eggs.

1 small sweet potato cut into 1/4 in pieces
1/2 cup water
1-2 T olive oil
1 half red pepper diced
1 garlic clove
Salt and pepper to taste

Cut up veggies.  Meanwhile, in a medium skillet bring half cup of water to boil. Once it's boiling, add the sweet potatoes. Cover and cook for 5 minutes (this may take longer if you cut sweet potatoes into bigger pieces).  I took the lid off with a minute to go to let the water evaporate. Then add olive oil,  garlic, and red pepper and cook until soft about 1-2 minutes. Then scoot veggies to one side of the pan and (you may want to add more olive oil to the  empty side) crack eggs into other side and scramble them until they are cooked to your liking  and then mix the eggs with the veggies and serve. We had a couple avocado slices with it and I added a little bit of ketchup. I'll have to make a paleo version before I start. I have to say I quite enjoyed this new version and Remy loved it as well. I think this will be a great option for us. It took about 20 minutes to cook with the prep and cook time, so not a good option for the days I work, but any other day it is perfect!
