Sausage Sweet Potato Hash (Whole30)

This dish is literally like crack to me. I can eat it for every meal until it’s gone (usually about 3 days). It is so. so. yummy.

INGREDIENTS

  • 2 large sweet potatoes or 3 small to medium (about 3-4 cups), shredded with a grater
  • 1 lb pork sausage (unseasoned, organic if possible)
  • Ghee (or butter if you’re not doing Whole30)
  • Salt to taste
  • Cinnamon to taste

INSTRUCTIONS

  • Brown your sausage in a large, deep sided skillet on  medium-high heat. Drain, if necessary.
  • Add your shredded sweet potato and stir regularly for about 5 minutes.
  • Once a bit softened, add your ghee. Start with 4-6 Tbl cup, but as you fiddle with the seasoning, you may add a bit more. I am generous with this ingredient, which is probably part of the drug-like quality for me. 😉
  • Cook, stirring regularly, until ghee is melted and sweet potato is cooked through, usually another  5-8 minutes.
  • Add salt and LIBERAL cinnamon. Taste. Add more salt and cinnamon to taste. Seriously. I add more salt and cinnamon to this than I ever think is reasonable but it turns out perfectly. I usually start with 1 Tbl salt and 1 Tbl cinnamon and go from there.

I ALWAYS top this with an over medium or poached egg. getting all that yummy yolk mixed into this is literally like heaven in my mouth.

If you try this, let me know how you like it!

    Hi, today I watched your video about keto in the new year. Somewhere in there you mentioned your blog address, which is how I got to the sweet potatoes and sausage hash recipe. Since I lhad all the ingredients, I got up and made it right then for dinner. And fried an egg to put on top, too. OMG, delicious. Just wanted to let you know I tried it.

    I’m 2.5 years out from VSG, June 28, 2014. Lost 100 before surgery, went into surgery at 280. Lost down to 217 after surgery, and for the last year and a half have been fighting the battle (losing it, mainly) to keep it off. At 238 now. Curious to see how you like keto. I’ve been following VSGTanya, too. She looks great!
