Sweet Potato Hash

I needed a quick lunch! So I did a quick survey of what I had on hand. Here is what I came up with. Sweet Potato Hash. The asparagus I used was leftover from a meal a couple days before. If you want to add protein to this you could use ground turkey sausage or black beans would be a great vegetarian option.

Ingredients

1 very large or 2 small sweet potatoes, peeled and diced

1 bell pepper (any color, I just happened to have orange), diced

1 medium sweet onion, diced

8 stalks asparagus , cut in 1/2 inch pieces

1-2 T olive oil

2 cloves garlic, pressed

Salt, pepper, thyme to taste

Balsamic glaze

Heat olive oil in pan on medium heat. Add onions, sweet potatoes, peppers, and asparagus. Add garlic and seasonings. Sautee vegetables until sweet potatoes are soft, stirring frequently.

Divide on plates. Top with a balsamic glaze.

Serves 2 as a meal or 4 as a side dish with a meal.
