Sweet Potato Hash with Sausage & Kale

Need a hearty, stick-to-your-ribs breakfast? You can make this protein-packed sweet potato hash in a single cast iron pan, all without turning on the oven.

Breakfast hashes are very versatile dishes, and this Paleo Diet® recipe is no exception. This recipe calls for a nutritional powerhouse trio of sweet potatoes, ground pork, and fresh kale, but you can easily swap out (or add) other hearty veggies like beets, onions, or shallots.

Start by sautéing the sweet potato cubes in coconut oil. They take the longest to cook, so be sure to give them a good head start. You can also slice them into ½-inch cubes or smaller to cook them even faster.

Once the sweet potatoes are soft, add the ground pork and continue cooking until browned, stirring constantly. Add the kale and then season with black pepper and garlic powder. You can also experiment with other spices like turmeric, red pepper, or onion powder as well (or instead).

Serve up your hash as soon as it’s ready, or take the time for one extra step and fry up a few eggs to serve over the top. Garnish with green onions and black pepper and dig in!
