Truth: I never ate sweet potatoes until just a few years ago. Not even the candied ones at Thanksgiving!
I don’t know what changed, but now I don’t know what I’d do without them in my life. Stuffed sweet potatoes, sweet potato fries, any way you cook them, I’ll eat’em!
I always have a stock in my pantry. They’re a pretty amazing food that’s packed with tons of nutrition and are very versatile.
Sweet or savory, breakfast or dinner…sweet potatoes are a healthy, filling food for any meal of the day.
You can eat this sweet potato hash for breakfast, lunch or dinner! Enjoy it as a side dish or have it as the meal itself.
Use it for meal prep by making it ahead on the weekend, then reheat alongside eggs for a quick breakfast. For an easy dinner, add some chicken sausage into the same pan while the hash is cooking. The possibilities are endless!

Trader Joe’s Everything But the Bagel Seasoning or dried rosemary are great flavor additions! You can either cook it in a stovetop skillet or throw it all in the oven on a large sheet pan. Either method turns out delicious and both directions are given below.
