Health Benefits of the Main Ingredients

• Sweet Potatoes: Sweet potatoes are packed with complex carbohydrates, fiber, and antioxidants. They’re rich in vitamin A, which supports eye health, and they’re a great source of beta-carotene, which helps protect your cells from damage. Plus, they provide sustained energy, so you won’t experience that mid-morning crash.

• Eggs: Eggs are a nutritional powerhouse, offering high-quality protein that helps repair and build muscle. They’re also loaded with vitamins like B12 and choline, which support brain health and metabolism. Eggs also contain essential amino acids that your body needs to function optimally.

• Spinach: Spinach is full of iron, which helps your body produce red blood cells and carry oxygen throughout the body. It’s also high in vitamin K, which is great for bone health, and it contains powerful antioxidants that protect your body from inflammation and oxidative stress.

• Bell Peppers & Onions: These veggies add color, crunch, and flavor to the hash. Bell peppers are high in vitamin C, which supports your immune system, while onions have anti-inflammatory properties and contain prebiotics that support gut health.

Recipe and Instructions

Ingredients:

• 2 medium sweet potatoes, peeled and diced

• 1 bell pepper, chopped

• 1 small onion, diced

• 1 cup spinach (or more, if you like!)

• 4 large eggs

• 2 tbsp olive oil

• Salt and pepper to taste

• Optional: avocado, salsa, hot sauce for topping

Instructions:

1. Heat a large skillet over medium heat and add 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Add the diced sweet potatoes and sauté for about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they begin to soften and brown.

4. In a separate pan, heat the remaining tablespoon of olive oil and cook the eggs to your liking (poached, scrambled, or fried).

5. Once everything is cooked, divide the sweet potato hash among plates and top with eggs. You can add extra toppings like avocado, salsa, or a drizzle of hot sauce for some extra flavor.
