Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 pounds sweet potatoes, peeled and diced

  • 2 tablespoons olive oil

  • 1/2 teaspoon salt, or to taste

  • 5 slices low-sodium bacon

  • 2 cups chopped onions

  • 2 large, firm apples, cored and diced

  • 1/2 cup chopped walnuts

  • 4 large eggs

  • 2 cups fresh spinach

  • 2 tablespoons fresh minced chives (optional)

Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C); line a sheet pan with parchment paper.

  2. Toss sweet potatoes with olive oil and salt in a bowl; spread in a single layer in the prepared pan.

  3. Roast, uncovered, in the preheated oven until barely fork tender, about 10 minutes; set aside.

  4. Meanwhile, fry bacon in a large skillet over medium heat until browned, turning occasionally, about 10 minutes. Remove cooked bacon; set aside.

  5. To the same skillet, add onions and cook, stirring, until onions are soft, 4 to 5 minutes. Add apples; cook 3 to 4 minutes. Stir sweet potatoes and walnuts into the skillet; cook and stir until sweet potatoes are tender and walnuts are lightly toasted, 6 to 8 minutes. Crumble bacon back into the skillet for the last minute of cooking time. Set aside and keep warm.

  6. Crack eggs into a skillet over medium heat. Cook until outer edges become opaque, about 1 minute. Cover, reduce heat to low, and cook until whites are completely set, about 4 minutes.

  7. Spread about 1/2 cup fresh spinach on each serving plate; evenly divide hash on top of spinach. Place a lightly fried or poached egg on top of each plate; sprinkle with chives.

Cook’s Note:

Refrigerate leftover hash in a sealed container for up to 4 days.
