Whip up a special brunch this weekend.

The weekend is upon us! What better time to enjoy a relaxing morning with your loved ones delighting in a delicious (and nutritious) brunch? For some of you, the weather may even be warm enough to set up your spread outside under the spring sunshine. Whether you’re gazing at the budding blooms from inside or out, I’ve prepared a Fat Flush-friendly menu that you and your companions will love.

I hope you enjoy—and do remember to prepare your overnight oats Saturday evening!

• ½ teaspoon sea salt
• 1 tablespoon fresh thyme leaves, chopped, or 1 teaspoon dried thyme

Directions

• Add the sweet potatoes and sea salt.
• Cook, stirring occasionally, until the potatoes become tender and browned.
