Breakfast for Dinner

Sweet Potato Hash & Over Easy Eggs on  
Home made Ground Sausage

2 large sweet potatoes
2 tbsp olive oil
6 eggs
1 lb ground beef
1/2 tsp dry sage
1/2 tsp black pepper
1/4 tsp thyme
1/4 tsp rosemary
1/8 tsp marjoram
1/8 tsp nutmeg
Pinch of cayenne


Wash and grate sweet potatoes into shredds in a large bowl.

Preheat oven to 350.

Using a large sauté pan, add 2 tbsp olive oil and heat pan to med-low. Add potato shredds and some ground pepper. Continuously moving shredds around with a spatula so they don't stick to pan.
For crispy shredds you will need 4 tbsp olive oil, I like mine soft so I only used the 2 tbsp.

In a medium sized bowl, add ground beef and all your dry seasonings. Mix until seasoning and meat are combined.

In a separate pan, spray with olive oil
and add ground beef. Do not let the beef stick together use a metal spatula to break apart meat, it should be loose kind of like taco meat. When meat is fully cooked and no longer pink, set aside.

Once the shredds are starting to brown or soften turn heat to low, move shredds to perimeter of pan and add eggs to open middle space. Once you start to see white on egg, cover and place in oven.

Heat eggs for about 3-5 min, egg white shouldn't be runny.

Plate with desired amount of ground sausage then sweet potato shredds and top with eggs.
