1-2 tbsp pickled jalapeños (optional)
1 tsp olive oil for roasting
Salt, black pepper, and red chili flakes to taste

Directions:

Roast the Sweet Potatoes: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Toss the diced sweet potato with olive oil, salt, and pepper. Spread them on a baking sheet and roast for 20-25 minutes until they are golden and crisp.

Assemble the Plate: On a plate, arrange the roasted sweet potato, sautéed spinach, halved eggs, sliced avocado, and add the jalapeños if you like a little kick. Finish by sprinkling everything with black pepper and chili flakes to taste.
