Ingredients

  • 1 medium sweet potato, baked
  • 1 fried egg
  • 1 cup broccoli florets, steamed
  • 1/2 cup cooked chicken breast, diced
  • 1/4 cup cottage cheese
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper
  • 1/2 tsp paprika (for the chicken)
  • 1/2 tbsp olive oil

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Sweet Potato: Bake the sweet potato at 400°F (200°C) for 45 minutes or microwave for 5–7 minutes until soft. Mash lightly with a fork and season with salt and black pepper.
  2. Cook the Chicken: Heat olive oil in a pan over medium heat. Season diced chicken with salt, black pepper, and paprika. Cook for 5–7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until golden brown and cooked through.
  3. Steam the Broccoli: Steam broccoli florets in boiling water for 3–5 minutes until tender but still bright green.
  4. Fry the Egg: Heat a non-stick pan over medium heat. Fry the egg for 2–3 minutes or until edges are crispy and yolk is still runny (or to your liking).
  5. Assemble & Serve: In a bowl, arrange mashed sweet potato as the base. Add chicken, broccoli, and the fried egg. Place cottage cheese on the side. Finish with a sprinkle of black pepper and serve warm.

Notes

  • Use turkey, shrimp, or tofu instead of chicken for variation.
  • Add spinach, kale, or roasted bell peppers for more veggies.
  • Swap cottage cheese with Greek yogurt or ricotta.
  • Add chili flakes or hot sauce for extra spice.
  • Best served fresh, but components store well separately.
