April 20, 2017 By Natasha Leave a Comment

Team scrambled or team runny yolks? Make this Breakfast BLT any way you like your eggs and drizzle with maple sriracha aioli for a crowd pleaser at your next brunch!

First of all, it’s National BLT Sandwich month. I mean, how many National blah blah days/months do we really need?

Did you know that April is also National Grilled Cheese Month, Food Month, Pecan Month, Soyfoods (ummm, whaaat?) Month, Soft Pretzel (not hard pretzel) Month…. and a million more national food DAYS too.

Holy cow. Just why?

Okay. So BLT’s. I love ’em and make them all the time. They’re easy. They taste good. I usually always have the basic ingredients on hand….

Eggs Benedict with Chipotle Hollandaise

Adding some chipotle peppers to the hollandaise sauce gives these low carb eggs benedict the perfect little kick! Just add some baked ham, and Easter brunch is ready!

This post is in partnership with my friends at Nomiku. They provided me with their new WiFi Nomiku sous vide immersion circulator, but all opinions are always my own!

Ever since I was a kid, I’ve loved ordering eggs benedict when going out to breakfast. The poached egg on top the english muffin with ham and the delicious creamy hollandaise poured all over the top! Mmmmmm…….

Sweet Potato, Bacon, Egg Breakfast Skillet

Sweet Potato, Bacon, Egg Breakfast Skillet

I love sweet potatoes. And bacon. And eggs. Especially when you add all 3 of these ingredients together in a cast iron skillet. The sweetness of the sweet potatoes with the saltiness of the bacon, and that gooey yolk that acts like a sauce. Here’s an easy recipe that incorporates all 3 ingredients together along with some smoky chipotle seasoning. Enjoy this for breakfast, or really any meal of the day! I use FlavorGod Chipotle seasoning, however you may use a combination of sea salt, cracked pepper, chipotle powder and cumin to achieve a nice smoky flavor with a little bit of heat. In addition to using FlavorGod in all my dishes, I also love using OMGhee brand ghee, however you may choose to use regular butter instead. Ghee is made from butter that has been heated and the milk solids and water removed. I have switched to using butter made from grass-fed/pasture raised cows, such as Kerrygold, due to the health benefits versus grain fed cows.
