Breakdown of Ingredients
- Coconut Oil: Coconut oil is loaded with healthy fats and is a good choice for cooking. You can, however, use olive oil, avocado oil, or any other vegetable oil.

- Smoked Paprika: It offers a slightly sweet yet smoky flavor with a subtle heat.
- Red Bell Pepper: Red bell pepper has a sweet, fruity flavor, but it’s the color that really attracts everyone. Plus, you simply can’t miss out on the nutrients it offers.

- Seasoning: Season the eggs with Sea Salt & Black Pepper for maximum flavor.
- Avocado: I love avocadoes for their smooth texture. Garnish this breakfast dish with avocadoes. It turns out to be a great combination.
- Green Onion: Freshly chopped green onions also serve as a good garnish.
Tips for making sweet potato hash and eggs
- When making sweet hash and eggs, keep these points in mind:
- Using a cast iron skillet is a perfect way to switch between stovetop to oven and not have to use another pan. It also helps prevent the eggs from sticking to the bottom of the pan.
- You can sauté sweet potatoes in a pan, or you can bake them or air fry them as well.
- If you don’t want fried eggs, you can whisk them and then pour them on the vegetables.
- For a meaty element, add bacon pieces or sliced sausages.
- Replace kale with spinach if you don’t like its flavor.
- You can also use green or yellow bell pepper instead of red ones.
- You can also add mushrooms, green beans, carrots, and corn to this recipe.
How to store leftover sweet potato hash and eggs?
Refrigerate the leftover hash in an airtight container, and it will last for 3 days. You can prepare the
vegetable mixture at night, allow it to cool down, and refrigerate it. This way, you just have to add eggs
and bake them in the morning.
