Preparation Steps

    For the Tomatillo Chive Salsa

    • Remove the Tomatillo's husk and core, then dice.
    • Chop the chives and parsley.

    For the Paleo Sweet Potato Hash

    • Peel and dice the sweet potatoes, onions, and zucchini.

    Cooking Instructions

    • Prepare the Tomatillo Chive Salsa
    • Add all the ingredients to a food processor, blender, or mini-prep and process well.
    • Taste and adjust seasonings before setting aside.

    The Paleo Sweet Potato Hash

    • Cook the onions
    • Heat the pan over medium heat.
    • Add the olive oil and wait for it to shimmer.
    • Add the onions and a pinch of salt.
    • Stir and cover.
    • Cook for 10-12 minutes, stirring occasionally until browned and soft.
    • Set aside in a large bowl.

    Cook the Zucchini

    • In the same pan, add 1 tablespoon of olive oil.
    • Add the diced zucchini and a pinch of salt when it is shimmering.
    • Cook for 6-7 minutes or until nicely golden brown and tender.
    • Add to the large bowl.
    • Cook the bacon
    • Again, in the same pan, add the bacon fat.
    • Add the sweet potato, 2-3 pinches of salt, and a few cranks of pepper.
    • Cover and let it cook.
    • Stir occasionally for 8-10 minutes. Remove from the pan and add to the bowl when golden and tender.

    Cook the Sausage

    • In the same pan, cook the sausage. Break up the sausage well while cooking so it all gets cooked.
    • When well-cooked, remove and place on a plate with paper towels to remove extra grease.
    • After 1-2 minutes of resting, add the sausage to the other ingredients in the bowl.
    • Mix all the ingredients, taste, and adjust seasonings. You have the sweet potato sausage hash.
    • Cover the bowl with foil and set aside.

    Poach the Eggs

    • Fill a saucepan up to 4 inches with water and bring it to a simmer over medium heat.
    • Add vinegar to the simmering water and gently swirl it with a slotted spoon.
    • Crack an egg directly into the center of the simmering water.
    • Cook the egg for 3 minutes and remove with a slotted spoon.
    • Place on paper towels and cover with a lid or an upside-down bowl to keep warm.
    • Repeat with the next egg!

    Assemble Everything

    • Add a few scoops of the paleo breakfast hash to 4 bowls.
    • Place one or two poached eggs on top of the hash.
