Sweet Potato Pasta with Bacon
I made this just for myself! You can adjust the serving size below if you want to make it for more.
Servings1 person
Prep Time10 minutes
Cook Time15 minutes
Ingredients
Instructions
  1. Spiralize 1 peeled sweet potato. For this dish I used 1/2 of the spiralized portion. Save the rest or double recipe!
  2. Sauté spiralized sweet potato in 1 Tbsp of olive oil and little water for about 10 minutes until softened or to desired consistency. The sweet potato softens quicker with a lid on the pan. Set aside.
  3. Cook 2 pieces of bacon and chop into pieces.
  4. Add 1 Tbsp of oil to pan and sauté onion, garlic and red pepper flakes. After a few minutes add bacon.
  5. Whisk egg well with some salt and pepper in a bowl.
  6. Put softened sweet potato noodles back in pan with bacon and slowly add the egg. The egg will scramble. Serve immediately

]]> I’ve been using a vegetable spiralizer for awhile now to make vegetable noodles.  When I switched over to a no grain diet I needed something to put my pesto and home made meat sauce on!  I started by using zucchini only as it is the easiest one to use (leave the skin on for the healthy green part, but you can peel to make it look more like real noodles!) I have now branched out into carrots, sweet potato and daikon radish.  I have yet to try parsnips, turnips, cucumber, broccoli stems, apples and squash!  One of my favorite recipes using daikon radish is pad thai.  A great cookbook which I got recently is here and I can’t wait to try out some new recipes!

Some other great ideas:

  • cold noodle salad made with carrot noodles
  • broccoli slaw
  • sweet potato curly fries!
  • apple dessert made with apple spirals
  • pretty spiralized beets on top of a salad or roasted (wash spiralizer right away or will stain)

There are a few different kinds out there but this is the one that I love and use regularly.  It is inexpensive, comes with three blades and washes very easily!
