Whether or not you are into "clean eating" or "whole 30" eating...this is an easy, delicious, and healthy meal. It's great autumn breakfast meal - or even dinner. It's become one of my go-to quickie dinners.
You can make this with sweet potatoes or yams, I usually prefer a nice dark orange sweet potato, but this time around I used a lighter sweet potato. (If you are feeling the need to google the difference between yams and sweet potatoes right now, let me save you a step...click

WHAT YOU NEED:
1 LARGE SWEET POTATO
1/2 LARGE ONION
1 TEASPOON MINCED GARLIC
OLIVE OIL OR COCONUT OIL
4 EGGS
SALT & PEPPER
FRESH OR DRIED PARSLEY
WHAT YOU DO:
-Dice ONION
-Swirl OLIVE OIL around in a skillet or cast iron pan, and heat to medium high. Add ONION to the pan and add the GARLIC and a sprinkle with SALT and PEPPER.
-While the ONION is cooking, chop the SWEET POTATO into similar sized cubes. Then add the SWEET POTATO cubes to the pan.
-Toss POTATOES and ONIONS around with the OIL, GARLIC, SALT & PEPPER. Add more OIL if it's looking dry. (Keep a sizzle going) Add PARSLEY. Cook on medium heat for about 10-12 minutes till potatoes are browned and soft to the touch of a fork.
-Once POTATOES are browned and softened, even them out in a flat layer (with out squishing them) around the pan.
-Take EGGS and crack them right onto the top of the POTATOES. (space them out evenly, and if a yolk breaks, it's no problem)
-Cover the pan and let sit for about 5 minutes.
Depending on your personal preference for eggs, you can leave the eggs as runny or make them as solid as you like. I personally like them to be "over-medium" You can lightly shake the pan and watch the tops of the eggs. The more they jiggle and look "liquidy" the more runny they are.
(I like to wait till they don't jiggle much.)
Once the eggs are at the consistency you desire, uncover and remove from heat. With a spatula, scoop out the hash and plate it with a nice side, like fresh pear or apple slices.
I like to add a little extra salt, pepper, and when I have them in my kitchen, fresh avocado slices. It's a delicious way to top this clean and healthy
SWEET POTATO HASH!
ENJOY!
