Ingredients

  • 1 large sweet potato peeled and diced (about 2 cups)
  • 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
  • 1/2 large red onion diced
  • 1 large red bell pepper cored, seeded, and diced
  • 1 large yellow bell pepper cored, seeded, and diced
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • 2 cups kale packed chopped, stems and ribs removed
  • Kosher salt to taste
  • black pepper freshly ground, to taste
  • 4 large eggs
  • 1 large ripe avocado pitted, peeled, and sliced

Instructions

  • In a large skillet, heat the extra-virgin olive oil over medium heat. Once hot, add the diced red onion and sauté for about 3-4 minutes until it becomes translucent. Add the minced garlic and sauté for an additional minute, stirring frequently to prevent burning.
  • Next, add the diced sweet potato to the skillet. Season with kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper. Cook for about 8-10 minutes, stirring occasionally until the sweet potatoes start to soften and develop a lightly browned exterior.
  • Add the diced red and yellow bell peppers to the skillet. Continue to cook for another 5 minutes, allowing the peppers to soften and their flavors to meld with the sweet potatoes.
  • Once the peppers are tender, stir in the chopped kale. Cook for an additional 3-4 minutes until the kale is wilted and vibrant. Taste and adjust the seasoning if necessary.
  • Create four little wells in the hash mixture and crack an egg into each well. Cover the skillet and let the eggs cook for about 5 minutes or until the whites are set and the yolks are still runny, or to your desired doneness.
  • Once the eggs are cooked to perfection, remove the skillet from the heat. Serve the Sweet Potato Hash immediately, topped with slices of ripe avocado for a creamy finish.
