Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit.
  2. Chop the sweet potato into small chunks and spread them out on a baking sheet.
  3. Coat the sweet potatoes lightly with avocado oil spray and sprinkle Ajika Georgian Seasoning blend over the top.
  4. Bake the sweet potato for about 40 minutes, flipping halfway through.
  5. While the sweet potatoes bake, fill a small pot with water and bring it to a boil.
  6. Gently place the two eggs in the boiling water and set a timer for 12 minutes.
  7. Prepare an ice bath. Transfer the eggs directly from the boiling water into the ice bath after 12 minutes.
Cooking
  1. Sauté the 2 cups of spinach with a pinch of sea salt and black pepper in a pan over medium to low heat until wilted.
  2. For the pickled onions, slice the red onion lengthwise into 'C' shapes.
  3. In a jar, combine the sliced onion with 1 tablespoon of salt and 1 tablespoon of sugar.
  4. Heat 6 oz of water until boiling, then pour it into the jar with onions and fill with white vinegar.
  5. Allow the pickled onion mixture to cool before refrigerating.

  2. Finish with fresh cilantro and a sprinkle of red pepper flakes, if desired.

Notes

For an extra kick, use red pepper flakes or fresh cilantro. Sweet potatoes should be firm with no blemishes. You can substitute the spinach for kale or Swiss chard.
