Ingredients
  

For the Hash
  • 2 cups Sweet Potatoes (diced) Adds natural sweetness and tender texture; substitute with regular potatoes for less sweetness.
  • 1 medium Red Bell Pepper (chopped) Contributes color and mild sweetness; swap with yellow or orange bell peppers or corn for a similar flavor.
  • 1 medium Onion (chopped) Provides flavor and aroma; use yellow or white onions as alternatives.
  • 2 cloves Garlic (minced) Enhances savory depth; fresh is preferred, but garlic powder can work in a pinch.
  • 1 cup Cherry Tomatoes (halved) Adds juiciness and acidity; substitute with diced regular tomatoes if needed.
  • 2 cups Spinach or Kale Offers freshness and slight bitterness; Swiss chard or collard greens are great alternatives.
  • 1 tablespoon Olive or Avocado Oil For sautéing; avocado oil is better for high-heat cooking.
  • 1 teaspoon Smoked Paprika Adds depth and smokiness; can substitute with regular paprika or omit for less spice.
For the Eggs
  • 4 large Eggs Brings richness and protein; cook them to your preference; sunny side up is ideal for a runny yolk.

  • Skillet

  3. Mix in the chopped onion and red bell pepper, cook for another 4-5 minutes until the vegetables soften and become fragrant.

  5. Add the chopped spinach or kale, seasoning with salt, pepper, and smoked paprika; cook for an additional 2 minutes.
  6. In a separate small pan, heat the remaining oil over medium heat, crack the eggs, cooking sunny side up or to your liking for about 3-4 minutes.
