Ingredients
  

2 medium sweet potatoes, peeled and diced

1 red bell pepper, diced

1 yellow bell pepper, diced

1 small red onion, finely chopped

2 cloves garlic, minced

1 teaspoon ground cumin

1 teaspoon smoked paprika

¼ teaspoon cayenne pepper (adjust for spice preference)

2 tablespoons olive oil

Salt and black pepper to taste

½ cup black beans, drained and rinsed

2 large eggs (optional)

Fresh cilantro for garnish

Avocado slices for serving

Instructions
 

Start by heating the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.

    Once hot, add the diced sweet potatoes and season with a pinch of salt and black pepper. Cook for about 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally until they start to soften.

      Add the chopped red onion and cook for another 3 minutes until the onion becomes translucent.

        Stir in the diced red and yellow bell peppers along with the minced garlic. Continue cooking for an additional 5 minutes, or until the peppers are softened.

          Sprinkle in the cumin, smoked paprika, and cayenne pepper, stirring well to combine all the spices evenly into the hash.

            Gently fold in the black beans, cooking just until heated through, about 2 minutes. Taste and adjust the seasoning with more salt and pepper if needed.

              OPTIONAL: If you want to add eggs, create small wells in the hash, crack an egg into each and cover the skillet. Cook for about 5-6 minutes or until the eggs are set to your liking.

                Once everything is cooked through, remove from heat, and garnish with fresh cilantro.
