Directions

1. Step 1Preheat oven to 400º with a rack set in the center. Poke sweet potatoes several times with a fork and place on the baking sheet. Roast until you can easily insert a fork into the center of a sweet potato, 45 minutes to 1 hour.
2. Step 2When the sweet potatoes are almost done, heat oil in a medium, non-stick skillet over medium-heat. Add eggs and cook until edges are crispy, whites are bubbling up, and yolk is just set, 3 to 4 minutes.
3. Step 3Cut each sweet potato in half lengthwise and place on serving plates. Top with fried eggs, avocado, and a dollop of pesto. Sprinkle with red pepper flakes and season with salt and pepper.
