Sweet Potato Hash with Eggs -perfect for breakfast, lunch or dinner. 

Close up shot of Sweet Potato Hash with Eggs

My husband bought these 2 huge sweet potatoes, and I made some some sweet potato fries with 1/2 of 1, that’s how big they are. So I still had 1/2 of a big sweet potato that I kept in the fridge and thought it would be great for a sweet potato hash over the weekend. So glad I made this. This was one of those breakfasts that I love, so hearty and delicious, it’s a wonderful way to start your weekend with. I’ve said this before but truly this is one of my favorite things about weekends, the big breakfasts.

To be honest with you, you don’t really need a recipe for this kind of breakfast, I just used whatever I had in the fridge. Onions, bell peppers, sweet potatoes, spicy smoked sausage and eggs of course. You can add whatever spices you want, I just added some salt and pepper and some cumin because I thought it would go great with the sweet potatoes. And my favorite thing to drink with this great breakfast is a good cup of coffee. Enjoy my friends.

      Hi Hannah,
      It’s in step 1 of instructions, you cook them together with the onions on the stovetop.

    Mmm, I love a cooked breakfast! I’m very tempted to make this with vegetarian sausages.

      I`ve had vegetarian sausages before, they`re not bad actually, so worth a try. 🙂
