Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions for Sweet Potato Breakfast Hash
  1. Begin by dicing 2 medium sweet potatoes, 1 bell pepper, and 1 onion into uniform pieces. Preheat a large skillet over medium heat and add 2 tablespoons of olive oil, letting it warm up for about 1-2 minutes until shimmering.
  2. Add the diced sweet potatoes to the skillet and sauté for approximately 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they start to soften and turn a light golden color.
  3. Stir in the diced bell pepper and onion along with 1 teaspoon of smoked paprika. Continue to cook for another 15 minutes, occasionally mixing.
  4. If you're adding eggs, create small wells in the hash and crack 2 eggs directly into them. Cover the skillet and let it cook for about 5-7 minutes until the eggs are set to your liking.
  5. Once everything is cooked to perfection, remove the skillet from heat and allow it to cool for a couple of minutes. Serve warm, optionally garnished with fresh herbs or avocado slices.
