Ingredients
1lb (16 oz)bacon, chopped into small piecesuse sugar and nitrate free for Whole30
2mediumsweet potatoesdiced into 1/2 inch (1.25 cm) cubes
3mediumzucchinisliced
5ozfresh spinach
4ozfeta cheeseomit for Whole30 and Paleo
Instructions
Start by adding chopped bacon to a pan over medium heat. You do not need to add any oil since the bacon will generate grease.
Once the bacon is done, set aside and cook the sweet potatoes in the bacon grease. Once sweet potatoes are almost done, add in the zucchini and cover for several minutes.
Once zucchini begin to soften, drain some of the bacon grease, if there is too much. You want somewhere between 1-2 tablespoons still left in the pan to do the remaining cooking, and for more flavor.
Toss in the fresh spinach and cook until wilted and until the zucchini is to your liking.
Top with feta cheese and serve.
