Kale + Sweet Potato Hash

JUMP TO RECIPE

Potatoes, potatoes, potatoes…

Potatoes may be one of the most versatile foods and also one of my favorites. You know that question, “If you were stranded on an island, what is the one food you would take?” Or something like that, you know what I’m talking about. Anyway, I wouldn’t hesitate to say POTATOES!

And kale…that wonderful kale! When I first had it I thought is was the worst leafy green I had ever tasted. LOL. But now, it has won my heart!

Kale is another food that can be prepared in so many different ways; raw, sautéed, added to soups and stews (which is my favorite way).

Both of these vegetables are easy to grow.

Growing Sweet Potatoes and Kale

Sweet potatoes like warm soil. So it is best to plant them in the spring after the last spring frost has past. This gives it ample time to grow and mature.

Kale is super easy to grow! AND it is frost hardy, which means you can grow it through the fall and the winter if you are in warmer zones like I am in Fayetteville, North Carolina (zone 8a). Click HERE to find out what growing zone you are in.


So saying all that…

I really enjoy a good hash. Any hash will do. Mostly it’s because it is a throw-it-all-together-and-cook kind of meal. I love one-pot dishes!

This recipe is filling and can be tweaked to make into whatever you want. You can switch the kale for spinach or swiss chard, add scrambled tofu and veggie sausage, or switch out the sage for oregano. For meat eaters, you can add sausage or serve it as a side dish.

So many possibilities!

Oh yeah…
