    I just made this almost paleo quiche tonight. It’s fantastic. You could try to sub the whole milk with almond milk to make it completely paleo.

    1 large sweet potato
    1/8 cup olive oil
    1 cup Boulder sausage (cooked)
    1/4 cup green bell pepper, chopped
    1/4 cup red bell pepper, chopped
    1/4 cup onion, chopped
    1 jalapeno, finely chopped
    2 eggs
    1/2 cup whole milk
    1/2 tsp. salt
    1/4 tsp. black pepper

    Skin the potato and shave into small strips like hashbrowns. Line the bottom and sides of a 9 inch pie pan with the shredded potato. Lightly coat the potato with olive oil. Make sure the edge of the pan is covered with potato. Bake at 425 for 20 minutes. Reduce the oven temperature to 350.

    Layer the sausage, peppers, onions, and jalapeno over the baked crust. Whisk the eggs, milk, salt, and pepper in a bowl until blended and pour over the prepared layers. Bake for 25-35 minutes or until a knife inserted in the center comes out clean.

    Enjoy!
