#BaptistHealthy: Sweet Potato Hash

Sweet potato hash is healthy, homemade and hearty. Roasted sweet potato, bell pepper, onion and rosemary are the makings of this winning hash.

It also makes for an easy breakfast — or breakfast for dinner (brinner). And it comes together in a single pan. You just add an egg and your meal’s complete.

Tips:

1. Using a single pot, skillet or baking dish, you’ll spend less time on clean-up and more time enjoying breakfast/dinner with family!
2. Use herbs and spices to enhance food flavors, and your health. Rosemary is a powerful herb and can easily overwhelm a dish if you use too much.  It’s best to start with the minimum called-for in a recipe and work your way up to taste.
3. A healthy breakfast or side dish packed full of flavor.

Ingredients:

• 2 medium sweet potatoes, peeled and chopped
• 1 bell peppers, chopped
• 1 large onion, chopped
• 3 cloves garlic, minced
• 3 tablespoons olive oil
• Pinch of salt
• Pinch of ground black pepper
• ¼ teaspoon paprika
• 3 sprigs rosemary
• Parsley or more rosemary for garnish (optional)

Directions:

1. Preheat oven to 400°F. On a large-rimmed baking sheet, toss sweet potatoes with bell peppers, onion, garlic, and oil.  Season with salt, pepper, and paprika.  Scatter rosemary on top.
2. Bake until sweet potatoes are crispy on the outside and soft on the inside, about 45 minutes, shaking the pan halfway through.
3. Garnish with parsley (or more rosemary) to serve.
