One of the first meals that I shared in an online group was Sweet Potato Hash. I loved it because it was a twist on breakfast for dinner (which is one of my very favorite types of dinner) and I could pretty much clean out the fridge as I made it. When I started working on one pan dinners, I knew there was a way to turn this favorite into an even easier meal. Rather than having to dice & roast the potatoes, cook the veggies, meat, & eggs separately before putting them all together, this version takes place in one pan... you just have to add the ingredients in every few minutes due to varying cook times. Preheat your oven to 400 & wash 2 medium sized sweet potatoes (or in my case, one HUGE sweet potato). Then with the skin still on, begin shredding it. I do this directly on the rimmed baking sheet that I will cook the entire meal in. You could also purchase a bag of preshredded sweet potatoes, but then you would miss out on the daring game of "don't cut your knuckles on the shredder." I'm pretty much 50/50 on whether I win that game. Once the potatoes are shredded, drizzle on 2 tablespoons of avocado oil (or any other cooking oil you prefer- EVOO & coconut oil would work just as well.) Next add in a generous pinch (1/4 - 1/2 teaspoon) of salt, pepper, paprika, cinnamon, oregano & chili powder. And for good measure you can throw in some nutritional yeast if you have it on hand. If you don't, just keep trucking along. Use your washed hands or a spatula to mix together the oil and seasoning in the shredded sweet potatoes and spread them out evenly-ish on your lined baking sheet. Put them in the oven for 7-10 minutes. While they begin cooking, you can start washing & cooking your other add ins. I like a sweet and savory profile for my hash, so I opt for apples, sweet peppers & chicken apple sausage for my add ins. Then I have to throw in something green to make me feel better about getting my veggies in. Tonight I chose broccoli & zucchini. Wash & dice all of the add ins. How much you add in is totally up to you. But if you like to have something to go off of, I had about a cup of apples, broccoli and zucchini. The sweet peppers were about half a cup. For the protein, I like Aidell's Chicken Apple Sausage. They are pre-cooked, so it takes some of the guess work out of cook time. I like to quarter each of the 4 links that come in the package, so I have 16 long strips. Then I dice them up. Once the first 7-10 minutes of solo cooking the sweet potatoes ends, pull the rimmed backing sheet out of the oven and add on your fruits, veggies & protein. You can add another tablespoon of oil for good roasting measure. Put the pan back in the oven for another 7-10 minutes. Once that time is up, pull out the pan & create 4-6 wells in the hash using a spatula. Carefully crack one egg into each well (or if you much have them scrambled, gently whisk in a separate bowl before pouring into the well.) Place the hash back in the oven for 7-10 more minutes. And there you have it! A one pan, breakfast for dinner wonder! Serve it up in your favorite bowl & feel free to toss some avocado chunks on top of it. Bonus: This reheats like a dream, so you could make a little extra and have a great breakfast or lunch option for later in the week. One Pan Sweet Potato Hash
