Ingredients
Scale
1 pound breakfast sausage, casings removed
2 large sweet potatoes, peeled and diced into 1/2-inch cubes
1 red onion, chopped
1 green bell pepper, chopped
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 teaspoon smoked paprika
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
Salt and black pepper to taste
4 large eggs (optional)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper for easier cleanup.
In a large bowl, combine the diced sweet potatoes, chopped onion, and bell pepper. Toss them with the olive oil, smoked paprika, garlic powder, salt, and pepper until everything is evenly coated.
Spread the seasoned vegetables in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet.
Roast for 15 minutes.
While the vegetables roast, break up the sausage meat and place it on the baking sheet around the vegetables. Gently mix the sausage in with the vegetables.
Return the sheet pan to the oven and bake for another 12-15 minutes, or until the sausage is fully cooked and the sweet potatoes are tender.
If you want eggs, create small wells in the hash mixture. Crack an egg into each well.
Bake for an additional 5-8 minutes, or until the egg whites are set and the yolks reach your desired doneness.
Serve immediately.
Notes
You can substitute chicken or turkey sausage for a lighter option.
Feel free to add a dash of your favorite hot sauce before serving for an extra kick.
If you prefer crispier potatoes, ensure they are in a single layer without overcrowding the pan.
