Ingredients
  

2 medium sweet potatoes, peeled and diced into 1/2-inch cubes

1 can (15 oz) black beans, drained and rinsed

1 red bell pepper, diced

1 green bell pepper, diced

1 small red onion, diced

2 cloves garlic, minced

1 tsp ground cumin

1 tsp smoked paprika

1/2 tsp chili powder (adjust to taste)

2 tbsp olive oil

Salt and pepper, to taste

4 large eggs (optional)

Fresh cilantro, chopped (for garnish)

Avocado slices (for serving)

Instructions
 

Prep Sweet Potatoes: Begin by peeling and dicing the sweet potatoes into 1/2-inch cubes. This ensures they cook evenly and get tender.

    Heat Oil: In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Once hot, add the diced sweet potatoes. Season with salt and pepper.

      Cook Sweet Potatoes: Cook the sweet potatoes for about 10-12 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they start to soften and gain a light golden color.

        Add Vegetables: Add the diced red onion, red bell pepper, and green bell pepper to the skillet. Sauté for another 5-7 minutes until the peppers are tender and the onions are translucent.

          Add Flavor: Stir in the minced garlic, ground cumin, smoked paprika, and chili powder. Cook for another 2-3 minutes until fragrant.

            Incorporate Black Beans: Gently fold in the black beans, cooking just long enough to heat them through (about 2 minutes). Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary.

              Optional Eggs: If adding eggs, make wells in the mixture and crack an egg into each well. Cover the skillet and cook for about 5-7 minutes, or until the eggs reach your desired level of doneness.

                Serve: Once cooked, remove from heat. Serve the hash warm, garnished with fresh cilantro and avocado slices on the side.
