Fried Sweet Potato Rice

Excerpted from The Sweet Potato Diet: The Super Carb-Cycling Program to Lose Up to 12 Pounds in 2 Weeks by Michael Morelli.

Ingredients
  

  • 1 medium sweet potato
  • 1 small onion chopped
  • 1/2 cup peas
  • 3 small mushrooms chopped
  • 1 clove garlic microplaned
  • 1/2 inch piece of ginger microplaned
  • "Soy" sauce Bragg or coconut liquid aminos
  • 2 eggs beaten

Instructions
 

  • Quarter the sweet potato and place in food processor. Pulse until it has a "rice" look to it.
  • Spray coconut oil in a skillet and add the sweet potato. Cook for just a few minutes and add the onion. Stir another few minutes, then add the garlic, ginger, peas, and mushrooms.
  • Let all of that cook down for a few more minutes, then drizzle the liquid aminos over everything. Push all of that to the side and add the eggs. Gently swirl the eggs as they cook and then slowly start to stir the rest of the pan into the eggs. Once the eggs are no longer wiggly it's done.

Notes

How to use it in your sweet potato cycle: This meal serves as 1-2 servings of carbs, a little less than a serving of fat, and three-fourths of a serving of protein.
Note: If you grab and use a sweet potato the size of your fist, you can be sure it's one serving of carbs.
