Sweet Potato and Sausage Hash

One pan skillet dinner, meet real food. What mom doesn't love a one pan dinner that can be made in less than forty-five minutes? This can be done in thirty minutes easily, if you have the potatoes chopped ahead of time.

My family has recently discovered its love of sweet potatoes. I'm frying them, baking them, making fries with them. Yum! A little off topic, but did you know there are also white sweet potatoes? They're delicious too! Everyone should get to try them.

This recipe can be for breakfast, lunch, or supper. You choose. It's good at any time of the day!

Sweet Potato and Sausage Hash 

Coconut oil
1 lb pork or turkey sausage
3 large sweet potatoes, peeled and cubed
Salt and cinnamon, to taste

Optional add-ins:
Greens
Carrots
Broccoli

In a 12" skillet, brown the sausage. When there is no pink left in it, move it to a bowl, but leave the grease. Add chopped sweet potatoes (and carrots or broccoli, if using) to pan, adding coconut oil if needed. Season with salt and cinnamon. Once potatoes are soft (15-20 minutes), add sausage (and greens) back in and continue to cook for a few minutes to let flavors combine. Remove from heat and enjoy!

(I ran my spinach through the food processor first. It makes it easier for the kids to eat, and they can't pick it out!) :)
