Ingredients

  • 2 large sweet potatoes, peeled and diced into 1/2-inch cubes
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil or coconut oil
  • 1 medium onion, finely diced
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 cups kale, stems removed and roughly chopped
  • 1 red bell pepper, diced
  • 1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground cumin
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • 4 large eggs
  • Optional toppings: diced avocado, salsa, fresh herbs, hot sauce

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Sweet Potatoes: In a large skillet over medium heat, warm the olive oil. Add the sweet potatoes and cook, stirring occasionally, until they begin to brown on the outside (about 8-10 minutes).
  2. Cook the Veggies: Push the sweet potatoes to one side of the skillet. Add a little more oil if needed, then add the diced onion and red bell pepper. Sauté until the onion becomes translucent (around 4 minutes). Add the garlic and sauté for another 1 minute.
  3. Add the Kale: Incorporate the chopped kale into the skillet, allowing it to wilt and become tender. Stir everything together, ensuring an even mix of vegetables.
  4. Seasoning: Sprinkle the smoked paprika, ground cumin, salt, and pepper over the vegetables. Stir well to coat the veggies in the seasonings.
  5. Make Wells for the Eggs: Using a spoon, create four small wells among the vegetables. Carefully crack an egg into each well.
  6. Cover and Cook: Reduce the heat to low and cover the skillet. Let it cook for 5-7 minutes, or until the egg whites are set but yolks remain runny. If you prefer a more well-done yolk, cook for an additional 2-3 minutes.
  7. Serve: Plate the hash, ensuring each plate receives a portion of vegetables and an egg. Add optional toppings like diced avocado or salsa as desired. Enjoy while hot!
