For the Love of Breakfast

     Before I talk about today's breakfast, I have to talk about yesterday's breakfast: Cauliflower Pizza Bites, leftover from dinner the night before :) I love leftovers, and if cold pizza is good for breakfast, then cold pizza bites are also good for breakfast! (I also ate them as an afternoon snack and a before-bed snack. I was hungry and they were tasty.)
 
      Have I previously mentioned that breakfast is one of my favorite parts of life? Yes, Life. I enjoy my mornings, mostly because I set aside time to enjoy them. It's the most peaceful time of day, dark & quiet before anyone else is awake. Even when I had to make it to work by 6:45am, I made time. I have a small meal, coffee, and read news on my phone. If I'm home during a weekday, I watch Good Morning America. It's wonderful.
     Being the Happy Eater that I am, I want to actually enjoy each meal. I can't simply toss some mediocre food in my mouth and get on with the day. That's miserable. Enjoying life means enjoying food.
   I have a great weekend recipe for you! And actually, you can make a large batch and eat it throughout the week for breakfast!

Sweet Potato Breakfast Hash

First, you need to peel two large sweet potatoes. Then, you can either chop them to little pieces in the food processor, or you can shred them if your food processor has a shredding option. Mine are just chopped into little pieces :) 


     In addition to the potatoes, you'll need coconut oil, salt, pepper, onion powder, garlic powder, and rosemary.

      In a mixing bowl, combine diced/shredded sweet potatoes, 1 teaspoon garlic powder, 1 teaspoon onion powder, 1/4 teaspoon of salt, and 2 tablespoons of rosemary. (I really like rosemary.) Heat coconut oil over medium-high heat in skillet. Add mixture to skillet, and cook for 15-20 minutes stirring occasionally. 



When the potatoes are getting slightly crispy, crack 4 eggs on top of potatoes. Your hash is done when eggs are cooked through!


1/4 of the recipe is a serving.

  1. Thanks for the mention, Clare! The sweet potato hash sounds yummy (and I love recipes that work well for multiple meals). Have you tried making a squash hash? I was thinking of giving that a whirl soon.

    1. I haven't tried that yet, but I'm sure it would be great! I am going to try some of these paleo "porridge" recipes soon!
