Spiced Sweet Potato and Goat Cheese Egg Skillet

In the vein of “three strikes and your out,” I’ve had a post written three times, deleting it each time. So instead, enjoy this tasty morning egg skillet. The temperature went from 50˚ to 7˚ in Illinois with the chance of impending snow/ice later this week. I think I’ll be whipping up a few of these to keep me warm and toasty.
