Sweet Potato Hash With Poached Eggs

    This is another recipe from my daughter Michelle, who is a first class foodie.   She gave me this one over the phone, and I was a bit skeptical as she read off the list of ingredients.  But I thought hey, I want to eat more vegetables at  breakfast so I'll give it a try. 

   All these fresh vegetables and spices work together to create a unique breakfast dish.  And yes, it is delicious! This recipe is from All Recipes, which is a site I really like. The only thing my daughter added were some red bell peppers.  You can tell by the picture below that I increased the recipe so that it would serve 4.  Anyway have fun with it.


Sweet Potato Hash with Poached Eggs  - For 3-4

1.  Prepare veggies:
(1)  Chop up 1/2 a cup of onion.
(2)  Mince 1 clove of garlic.
(3)  Dice up 1 sweet potato.
(4)  Wash and chop up 2 cups of spinach, kale, or swiss chard.
(5)  Wash and chop 2 T of parsley for the garnish.

2.  Saute veggies:
(1)  Heat 2 T of oil in a skillet and saute onions and garlic for 2 minutes.
(2)  Then add the sweet potatoes
(3)  Stir in spices:  1 tsp. of dried thyme, 1 tsp. cumin, 1/2 tsp. chili powder, 1/2 tsp. coriander, 1 tsp. of salt, and 1/2 tsp. of pepper.
(4)  Cook until almost tender.

3.  Add bacon and/or spinach/swiss chard:  If you want you can add some Canadian/turkey bacon and the spinach/kale/swiss chard.  Cook until it starts to wilt about 3minutes. 

4.  Make wells to cook the eggs:  With a wooden spoon make 2  wells  and crack 1-2 eggs into each well.  Pour 1/4 cup of water evenly over the eggs; cover and let them poach for 3 minutes or until the eggs are how you like them.

5.  Serving them up Using a spatula divide the contents of the pan  and serve onto a plate.  Garnish with parsley.  

Sweet Potato Hash Casserole:  I followed the same recipe but put it all in a 9 x 13 and baked it at 350 for 25 minutes.
