Happy Monday Tuesday friends! How’s your week going to far?

Pat and started our weekend early last week (on Wednesday night with the Kings of Leon Concert!) and flew to Seattle to visit friends for an extra long weekend. We got home last night and I feel refreshed and ready to take on the week. Who’s with me?!

The thing that is hardest for me about coming home is the empty fridge. I thrive on Sunday meal prep and having a fridge full of food ready for my breakfasts and lunches. It helps keep me on track and makes getting out the door in the morning a breeze.

Sweet potatoes are always on my meal prep list – sometimes roasted, but most often baked or steamed and left in the fridge. My love for sweet potatoes is pretty obvious, as shown here, here, and here; but I’ve recently been eating them for breakfast as the base to my protein stuffed sweet potato breakfast bowls.

These bowls are loaded will ALL the goods – siggi’s plain yogurt, banana slices, Awesome Almond Wella Bar, and extra almond butter for good measure.

Let’s make them!

As you know, I love Wella Bars. I became an ambassador for the company because I believe not only in their products and ingredients, but their mission. And while I love eating their protein bars plain, I like to experiment and incorporate them into other recipes. That’s what I like to call a #wellahack. This bowl is the champion of #wellahacks.

BUT if you don’t have Wella Bars on hand, these are also great topped with granola – especially my original gluten and grain free granola! Want to try it for yourself??

    This looks SO good! I’m always needing new breakfast ideas because I get so bored with repeating the same meals.

    You know that I’m a fan of anything loaded, especially toast, but a stuffed sweet potato? Now that sounds as good as a stuffed banana split. I should try this with a Wella Bar.

      I totally agree! And I am always so jealous of your loaded toast – I need to start doing that again!!

    i never have sweet potatoes for breakfast but i have no idea why. this sounds so filling and hearty, and would probably help me get out of bed because i’d be thinking about how delicious this would be.

      Hi Katelyn! The calories and sugar will vary depending on the size of your sweet potato and banana, but here is a good estimate:

      Small sweet potato: 114 calories, 6 grams sugar
      1/2 cup Siggi’s plain: 75 calories, 2.5 grams sugar
      1/2 banana: 50 calories, 7 grams sugar
      Awesome Almond Wella Bar: 200 calories, 8 grams sugar

      While this might seem like a lot of sugar, it is all naturally occurring sugar (sweet potato, banana) or unrefined sugar (honey). Let me know if you have any other questions!

      Hi Vicki! You can find almond butter at almost any grocery store – it should be right next to the peanut butter! My favorite place to buy it is Trader Joe’s. You can also make it yourself or find it at online retailers like Amazon. Let me know if you want other recommendations on brands or would like a recipe to make it yourself!

    This sounds like a great idea! I never thought about eating sweet potatoes for breakfast. I am doing carb Cycling and am struggling to fin sweet breakfast ideas and this one sounds great! Just one question: Are the sweat potatoes warm when you eat this?

      Hi Nicole! I’ve done it both ways… sometimes I meal prep a bunch of week potatoes for the week and I’ll just pull one out of my fridge and top it. But I love it warm and prefer it that way!

    This may sound dumb I’m completely new to using sweet potatoes for anything other than thanksgiving … how did you cook the potato, boiled, in the oven w foil? How long?

      Hi Ray! I either like to steam mine on the stove top – this usually takes 40 minutes or so. Or if I am in a rush in the mornings, I will wash it, poke the potato all over with a scissors, and then wrap it in a damp paper towel and microwave it on high for a couple (2-3) minutes on either side until soft.
