Ingredients
- • sweet potatoes: 2 large, peeled and diced
- • olive oil: 2 tablespoons
- • garlic powder: 1 teaspoon
- • ground cumin: 1 teaspoon
- • fresh spinach: 4 cups, roughly chopped
- • red onion: 1 small, finely chopped
- • red bell pepper: 1, diced
- • sunflower seeds: 1/4 cup, roasted and unsalted
- • fresh cilantro: 1/4 cup, chopped
- • lime: 1, juiced
- • salt: to taste
- • black pepper: to taste
Instructions
- 1 Preheat a large skillet over medium heat and add 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Add the diced sweet potatoes, garlic powder, and cumin, then season with salt and pepper. Stir occasionally, cooking for about 10-12 minutes until the sweet potatoes are tender and golden brown.
- 2 While the sweet potatoes are cooking, prepare the sunflower seed salsa by combining roasted sunflower seeds, lime juice, and chopped cilantro in a small bowl. Mix well and set aside.
- 3 Once the sweet potatoes are cooked, stir in the red onion and bell pepper. Cook for another 3-4 minutes until the vegetables are slightly softened.
- 4 Add the chopped spinach to the skillet, gently folding it into the sweet potato mixture until the spinach is wilted, about 1-2 minutes. Check for seasoning and adjust with more salt and pepper if needed.
- 5 Transfer the hash to serving plates and top each with a generous spoonful of sunflower seed salsa. Serve immediately, enjoying the fresh flavors and textures.
Serving Suggestions
- • Pair this savory breakfast hash with a side of whole grain toast or a warm whole wheat pita to soak up the delicious flavors. For an added protein boost, consider serving alongside a poached egg or a dollop of Greek yogurt. To complement the meal, enjoy a refreshing glass of freshly squeezed orange juice or a green smoothie packed with kale, banana, and almond milk.
Storage Tips
If you have leftovers, store the hash in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. To reheat, simply place in a skillet over medium heat, stirring occasionally until warmed through. The sunflower seed salsa can be stored separately in a small container in the fridge for up to 2 days to maintain its freshness and crunch.
