Sweet Potato and Black Bean Hash

This recipe was really good and really...  Surprising?  I'm not sure if that's the word I want to use but it was different.  I'm used to sweet potatoes being served with butter, brown sugar and possibly some marshmallows, but this was savory and filling!



Grab these items:

  • 4 Tbsp. olive oil
  • 3 cups diced sweet potatoes (about 2 large potatoes)
  • 1/2 yellow onion, diced (I used probably 1/4 of an onion)
  • 1 red pepper, sliced
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1/2 Tbsp. paprika
  • 1 tsp cumin
  • 2 cups spinach, chopped
  • 1 15-oz. can black beans, drained and rinsed
  • 1 avocado, sliced


  • Heat olive oil on medium heat in a large pan. 

  • Add sweet potatoes, onion, pepper, salt, pepper, paprika, and cumin and stir. 




Cook for 10 minutes, occasionally stirring. 

Add spinach and cook for an additional five minutes. 

  • Lastly, add the black beans and stir until all ingredients are well-blended.


  • Serve up with eggs and avocado or on its own. Enjoy!
