Prep Time: 5 minutes
Cook Time: 10 minutes
Total Time: 15 minutes
Course: Breakfast Hash
Cuisine: Paleo, Whole30
Servings: 2 servings

Ingredients

  • 1 small sweet potato or half of a larger one peeled and chopped small
  • 1 link all natural or organic italian sausage or breakfast sausage patty casing removed if it's a link*
  • 2 tbsp coconut oil
  • dash sea salt
  • large handful kale chopped
  • 2 tbsp water
  • 1-2 eggs
  • salt and pepper to taste
  • Thinly sliced green onion for garnish

Instructions

  1. Heat a small-medium heavy skillet over med heat. Add coconut oil and melt.
  2. Add the chopped sweet potatoes to the pan, stirring to brown, and sprinkle with a bit of sea salt.
  3. Cook sweet potatoes for about 5 minutes, covering to let them soften, stirring to evenly brown
  4. When sweet potatoes are nearly done, break the sausage into small pieces and add to pan. Stir and break down smaller to evenly brown.
  5. Once the potatoes and sausage are browned, add the kale and 1 tbsp water to the pan and toss to coat. Cover pan and allow kale to steam. Add another tbsp or so of water if needed
  6. After about a minute, check kale and stir. Once kale is soft, make small grooves in the hash and crack the eggs one at a time in the grooves and add salt and pepper if you like. Cover the pan, and lower the heat while the egg cooks.
  7. I like to cook the eggs until the whites are just solid and the yolks are still a little runny. Works well for this meal but of course cook them to your liking!
  8. Transfer to a plate (the whole thing should be able to slide right onto your plate, if not, just scoop it out), garnish with sliced green onion if you want, and wait a minute so you don't burn your mouth. It's not as good that way, I did it this morning and regretted it. Enjoy!

Recipe Notes

*If you're doing the Whole30, make sure your sausage has no added sugar. Many times grocery stores will make their own without sugar - if not - you can use my recipe, or purchase through U.S. Wellness Meats
