A tasty breakfast or brunch dish packed with nutrients.
Ingredients
- 2.0 medium sweet potatoes
- 1.0 each red bell pepper
- 1.0 each green bell pepper
- 1.0 small onion
- 2.0 cloves garlic
- 1.0 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 1.0 teaspoon ground cumin
- 0.0 to taste salt
- 0.0 to taste pepper
- 2.0 tablespoons olive oil
- 4.0 large eggs
- 0.0 to garnish fresh parsley or cilantro
Instructions
- Prep the Sweet Potatoes: Begin by rinsing and peeling the sweet potatoes. Dice them into small uniform cubes to ensure even cooking.
- Heat the Skillet: In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Once hot, add the diced sweet potatoes. Sauté for about 8-10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they begin to soften and develop a golden color.
- Add the Vegetables: Once the sweet potatoes start to soften, add the diced onion and peppers to the skillet. Cook for another 5-7 minutes until the vegetables are tender and the onions become translucent.
- Season the Hash: Add minced garlic, smoked paprika, ground cumin, salt, and pepper to the skillet. Stir everything together and cook for an additional 2 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
- Cook the Eggs (Optional): If you desire a protein boost, create four small wells in the hash and crack one egg into each well. Cover the skillet with a lid and let the eggs cook for about 5 minutes, or until the whites are set and the yolks are still runny, or until cooked to your preference.
- Serve: Once everything is cooked, sprinkle fresh parsley or cilantro over the top for a pop of color and flavor. Serve hot straight from the skillet.
- Enjoy! This dish makes for a tasty breakfast or brunch that's packed with nutrients to keep you energized throughout the day!
