Description

A delicious and nutritious breakfast hash with sweet potatoes, vegetables, and your choice of protein, all cooked in one pan.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 medium sweet potatoes, washed and diced into evenly sized cubes
  • 1 medium onion, chopped
  • 1 bell pepper, chopped (any color)
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 tbsp olive oil or cooking fat
  • Salt, to taste
  • Freshly ground black pepper, to taste
  • 2 eggs (fried or scrambled) or 1/2 cup cooked sausage pieces or 1/2 cup cooked black beans
  • 2 tbsp fresh parsley or cilantro, chopped
  • Optional garnishes: avocado slices, sour cream or Greek yogurt, shredded cheddar or crumbled feta cheese

Instructions

  1. Wash and dice sweet potatoes into evenly sized cubes to ensure uniform cooking. Chop onions, bell peppers, and mince garlic, making sure everything is ready to use.
  2. Place a large skillet over medium heat and add olive oil. Let it warm until shimmering but not smoking.
  3. Add diced sweet potatoes to the skillet, spreading them out in a single layer. Cook undisturbed for several minutes until a crispy golden crust forms.
  4. Once sweet potatoes have a nice sear, stir in onions and bell peppers. Continue cooking until onions soften and peppers become tender, about 5 to 7 minutes.
  5. Add minced garlic, salt, and freshly ground pepper. Cook for another minute, allowing garlic to release fragrance without burning.
  6. If adding eggs, sausage, or beans, do so now. Cook eggs to your preference on top of the hash or scrambled in the pan.
  7. Remove skillet from heat and sprinkle chopped parsley or cilantro over the hash before serving.

Notes

For added flavor, serve with optional garnishes like avocado slices or cheese. Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container for 3 to 4 days.
