I know what you’re thinking…REAL ORIGINAL JULI…and you’re right. This recipe isn’t a original. Really almost any paleo blog you look at out there, you can find some kind of egg muffin/egg cupcake/egg round, but that’s because it’s simple. And that’s what people like. Simple sh*t. Most people don’t like to spend hours in the kitchen, they’d rather be flirting with men at Whole Foods. That’s just me actually. Whatever. I’ve never even talked to a man at Whole Foods. I have hopes of that occurring though. Someday…someday.
Guess what I got this weekend!?!? PaleOMG Black Tanks!!!! Yes I did! Check out the link to buy your own from Renegade Fitness {NO LONGER AVAILABLE}!! We will be getting something even cooler in soon! Just you wait!
Anywho, even though this recipe is a bit dumb, it’s still super special to me. You know why?!? Because it was the first video I made of myself cooking!! So exciting! I’m not really good with being on camera. But I tried. I talked about a lot of random sh*t…but that’s what I do in my blog posts so I guess it makes sense. If you think I look stupid in the video…you’re correct. Special thanks to Tom who helped me edit this video and spent hours putting up with me and to Laura (the roomie) for recording me on a Saturday afternoon. She’s pretty damn awesome. And btw, the cooking video is on my YouTube station which has all my wod videos I had to turn in when I did the AgainFaster Wod Series. Some embarrassing. Ignore those. My b.
On-The-Go Egg Bites
- Yield: 6 1x
Ingredients
- 1lb ground pork mild italian sausage
- 12 eggs, beaten (if preferred)
- 1–2 narrow sweet potatoes, sliced
- salt and pepper, to taste
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350 degrees.
- Add your ground pork to a large skillet over medium heat. Use a spatula to break it up into crumbly pieces
- While the pork is cooking, slice your sweet potatoes a little bit thicker than a chip would be…I’d say the thickness of 2 quarters stacked together. Real technical. Then beat your eggs (unless you are going to crack them directly into the egg cups).
- Once the meat is cooked through and there is no pink remaining, transfer that to a plate (a slotted spoon will be best because it will keep the leftover fat in it, but just pouring it works as well).
- Now add your sliced sweet potatoes to the pan with the leftover fat and turn the burner on high.
- Cook for about 5 minutes per side, depending how thick they are but you want them to be soft so they will cook through fully when they are in the oven.
- Now place a cooked sweet potato slice into your silicone muffin pan or greased muffin tin, top it with a little ground pork, then another slice of slice potato and top it all off with some beaten eggs or crack an egg into it, it will bind it all together!
- Cook for about 10-15 min or until nothing oozy is moving around in the tins when you check them.
- Let cool, top with hot sauce!!
Notes
I got about 13 cups made with these ingredients!

I don’t think you’re too bad a dancer. Let’s see some more. Would you please tell me what that song was?
Oh Alice, you will definitely see more. Weekly occurrence. The song is “feel so close to you” by Calvin Harris. Bomb.
I’m pretty sure plenty of guys will talk to you at Whole Food wearing the new tank. HAWT!
Lol gosh i wish that were true
Just made these tonight! Only burnt one finger (why do I always forget that things muffin tins are hot when they come out of the oven??) Of course mine look way messier than yours but we’ll see tomorrow if they taste just as good! I added bacon because…i love bacon….
It happens, all that matters is the taste
You look amazing!! Cool to see you in action, both cooking and dancing =) What size tank are you wearing in the video? I’ve got to get one now that they are in black!!
Thanks Cj! I’m wearing a medium in the video! Fits perfectly and I’m about a size 6
I’ve only been paleo for a few weeks so i’m looking for new things: you made a comment in your blog somewhere about losing weight on paleo (which is my goal) and you said eating too much sweet potato and you gain weight, so now i’m freaked out, I cannot find on all the paleo sites i’ve visited a clear way to do this diet to lose the weight 🙁
i love that i already feel better but if i could get a cute ass like yours i would be sooo thrilled! 🙂
Hey L! Any sort of more starchy veggies like sweet potatoes, squash, and even super sugary fruit can lead to weight gain depending on your body composition. I gain weight very easily so having veggies such as sweet potato spike my insulin pretty easily which leads to gaining weight. If you have more questions, just check out my aboutme page and email me!!
“I keep trying to like tea and I don’t…”

I finally got the opportunity to watch your video and I loved it! You do a great job including the audience and being real. You are so funny! And you totally convinced me to try and make these egg muffins…they look better than any others I’ve made before. I love the sweet potato idea! Thanks for great recipes!
Thanks so much Jill!! I hope the next video is better haha
Thanks Juli! I will get a medium then!
