Description

This hearty sweet potato hash is a vibrant, wholesome way to start your day. Loaded with veggies, warm spices, and protein-rich eggs, it’s perfect for chilly mornings. No bacon needed—just real food, great taste.


Ingredients

Scale

1 small onion, diced

1 red bell pepper, diced

1 large sweet potato (approx. 4 cups), peeled and diced into ½-inch cubes

2 cups kale, roughly chopped

¼ tsp ground cumin

¼ tsp garlic powder

¼ tsp paprika

Salt and freshly cracked black pepper, to taste

4 eggs

1 green onion, thinly sliced (for garnish)

1 tbsp olive oil or avocado oil (for sautéing)


Instructions

  1. Warm the Pan: Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat.

  2. Sauté Veggies: Add the onion and red bell pepper. Cook for 2–3 minutes until they begin to soften.

  3. Cook the Sweet Potato: Add the diced sweet potatoes and spices (cumin, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and pepper). Stir well to coat. Cook for 10–12 minutes, stirring occasionally. Cover for the last 5 minutes to ensure the potatoes are tender.

  4. Add Kale: Stir in the chopped kale and cook for another 2 minutes until wilted.

  5. Add the Eggs: Make 4 small wells in the mixture. Crack an egg into each one. Cover the skillet and cook until eggs reach your desired doneness.

  6. Garnish & Serve: Remove from heat, sprinkle with sliced green onion, and serve hot!


Notes

A cast iron or enameled skillet (like Staub) ensures even cooking and a beautiful crisp finish.

For extra flavor, consider topping with a spoonful of salsa or avocado slices.
