Week Night Dinner - Sweet Potato Hash

Quick & Easy Week Night Dinner - Sweet Potato Hash

I’ll have to admit, I am kinda in a food funk. Usually I can shake my food funks pretty quickly, but traveling and inconsistent meal planning has caused this one to last longer than usual. Nonetheless, we have to eat, so when I came up with this recipe on the fly I was very impressed with myself. I had a couple extra sweet potatoes that I needed to use so I instantly thought of sweet potato hash. I added ground beef for protein, veggetables for fiber and micronutrients and a runny egg for dietary fat and flavor. I love spicy food so I added a little sriracha to finish off the dish (not seen in the picture).

LET'S GET COOKING: 

Quick & Easy Week Night Dinner - Sweet Potato Hash

INGREDIENTS: 

(Makes 4 servings)

Sweet potatoes:

2-3 medium to large sweet potatoes cubed

1 tbs olive oil

1 tbs garlic powder

1 tbs onion powder

1 tsp salt

1 tsp pepper

Meat & Vegetables:

1 lb ground beef (I use 80/20)

1 large bell pepper sliced

3-4 cups kale chopped

Juice of one lemon (used only to massage the kale so it is less bitter)

1 tbs garlic powder

1 tbs onion powder

2 tsp red pepper flakes

1 tsp salt

1 tsp pepper

Egg:

4 eggs (1 per serving)

Butter or cooking spray for the pan

Salt + Pepper

Optional toppings:

Sriracha

Green onions

INSTRUCTIONS:

Preheat oven to 400 degrees.

On a baking sheet evenly spread out cubed sweet potatoes and drizzle with olive oil. Season sweet potatoes with garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Place in the oven for 30 minutes or until easily pierced with a fork. (I usually broil for 5 minutes after baking for 30 to get the outsides slightly more crispy).

While the sweet potatoes are cooking, slice red bell pepper and massage kale with lemon juice. In a large skillet, brown the ground beef over medium high heat. Season with garlic powder, onion powder, red pepper flakes, salt and pepper. Add the sliced red bell pepper and sauté for about 2 minutes, add in chopped kale and sauté until kale is cooked down. Adjust salt and pepper to taste.

In a small skillet melt butter or spray with cooking spray. Crack 1 egg onto skillet careful to not break the yoke, and cook sunny side up until the egg white is no longer liquid. Continue this method until you have made enough eggs per serving.

Assemble the bowls - sweet potato, meat and vegetable combination, and sunny side up egg. Drizzle with sriracha if desired. Enjoy.
