Nutritious, colorful, and very filling. It’s honestly what you would expect from a Mexican dish and this sweet potato and black bean hash definitely delivers. On top of that, it’s fantastically easy to put together. You can serve this as a breakfast option, but I’m pretty sure I would opt to eat this during lunch or maybe even dinner. Nevertheless, worth a shot if you’re into the vegan Mexican cuisine!

Instructions

 

• Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Toss the diced sweet potatoes with half of the olive oil, ground cumin, chili powder, salt, and pepper on a baking sheet. Roast in the oven for 20-25 minutes or until tender and slightly browned.
• In a large skillet, heat the remaining olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced onion and bell pepper. Sauté for 5-7 minutes until softened and lightly browned.
• Add the minced garlic to the skillet and cook for an additional 1 minute until fragrant. Then, stir in the roasted sweet potatoes and black beans. Mix well to combine.
• Season the hash with additional salt and pepper if needed. Cook for another 2-3 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together.
• Divide the sweet potato and black bean hash between two plates. Garnish with chopped fresh cilantro if desired.
• Serve warm as a hearty and nutritious breakfast or brunch option. This dish pairs well with avocado slices, a dollop of salsa, or a side of scrambled tofu for added protein.
