Ingredients

  • 3 strips bacon
  • 1 - 1 1/2 pounds sweet potatoes washed, peeled, and cubed into ½ inch cubes
  • 1/2 green pepper diced
  • 1/2 red pepper diced
  • 1/2 yellow onion diced
  • 1/2 teaspoon chili powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon cumin
  • 1/2 teaspoon paprika
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt + more to taste
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 cup jalapeno & habanero jack cheese loosely packed
  • 3-4 large eggs

Optional Topping

  • chopped cilantro
  • diced avocado
  • Crumbled Feta
  • diced tomatoes

Instructions

  • Place bacon in a cold (oven safe) cast iron skillet* in a single layer. Turn stove on to medium.
  • Cook bacon until crispy. Remove bacon from pan, but leave the bacon grease.
  • Crumble bacon and set aside.
  • In the same skillet, cook the potatoes in the bacon grease for 5 minutes until they start to soften.
  • Add in the green pepper, red pepper, onion, and seasonings: chili powder, cumin, paprika, oregano, garlic powder, salt, and pepper.
  • Cook until all the veggies are tender, about 7-10 more minutes.
  • While veggies are cooking, preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
  • Once veggies are done cooking, stir in crumbled bacon and jack cheese.
  • Season with more salt and pepper, to taste.
  • Then, using the back of a spoon, make 3-4 shallow indents into the hash.
  • Crack an egg into each indent.
  • Place skillet in oven and bake until the egg whites set, about 10 - 15 minutes, depending on how cooked you like your eggs.
  • Top with optional toppings and serve!
  • Take 5 seconds to rate this recipe below. We greatly appreciate it!

Notes

*Don't have an oven safe skillet? That's ok! Use a regular skillet, then transfer cooked veggies into an oven safe baking pan and resume with step #8.
