This sweet potato, bacon and egg salad seems too simple, right, but it makes a great filling meal. One of the easiest ways to change this up is to add a grilled chicken breast to it. Then, add some spring mix to make it even more nutritious and dense.
I would recommend this being an after workout meal for the slow-carbers who are worried about the sweet potato. That way, you can justify the sweet potato carbs.
