Ingredients

INGREDIENTS

2 medium sweet potatoes, peeled and diced
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 small onion, diced
2 cloves garlic, minced
4 cups fresh spinach, chopped
Salt and pepper to taste
1 teaspoon paprika
4 eggs (optional, for topping)

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C).
In a large bowl, toss diced sweet potatoes with olive oil, salt, pepper, and paprika until evenly coated.
Spread the sweet potatoes in a single layer on a baking sheet. Roast for 20 minutes, flipping halfway, until tender and slightly caramelized.
While the potatoes are roasting, heat a large skillet over medium heat. Add the diced onion and sauté until translucent, about 5 minutes.
Add minced garlic to the skillet and cook for another minute until fragrant.
Stir in the chopped spinach and cook until wilted, about 2-3 minutes. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
Once the sweet potatoes are done, combine them with the spinach mixture in the skillet and stir well to combine.
If using, cook eggs to your preference in a separate skillet (fried, poached, or scrambled). Serve the hash topped with the eggs.

Notes

Tip: For a vegetarian protein boost, add black beans or chickpeas into the hash as it cooks.

To add an extra layer of flavor, consider incorporating spices like smoked paprika or cumin when sautéing the vegetables. Feel free to swap out the spinach for kale or Swiss chard if you prefer.

Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Simply reheat in a skillet over medium heat until warmed through. This dish also makes a fantastic base for meal prepping!
