This Sweet Potato Hash topped with a delicious, runny fried egg is everything you want and more in a sweet potato breakfast hash. 

Let’s talk about this Sweet Potato Hash… But first, let me tell you about my husband and me.

My husband and I are a pretty well-matched couple. There are very few things that my husband and I disagree on. And you lucky people get to read all about our trivial arguments and choose whether or not I’m right! {Answer: I’m always right.}

1. Watching scary/sad/thought-provoking/war movies. I don’t want to hear how “it’s not that bloody” and how “so-and-so will become triumphant in the end and overcome the odds”. Just pop in the romantic comedy and get me some popcorn.

2. My hair. I wear it long and rather enjoy it long. You, my dear, sweet, bald husband want me to chop it off and have it short. YEAH. Not gonna happen, honey….unless…..

3. You grow your hair and style it the way I like………

Just as I suspected. Not gonna happen.

4. You like fry sauce. I detest fry sauce. How is it a good idea to dip your deep fried potatoes into a mayonnaise-based sauce? I don’t understand. Ketchup ALLTHEWAY.

5. You cut a grapefruit like a boy. I cut mine like a girl and segment it out so it’s easier to eat. Do you recall that we don’t own special grapefruit spoons?

6. You like fried eggs brown and crispy with the yolks completely cooked through. I think you are crazy. Also, cooking eggs like this should be illegal. How can anyone resist a runny yolk? I mean….HELLO:

Runny yolk sunny side up egg over top sweet potato bacon hash with buttered toast on the side?

I rest my case.

Moral of the story: I am right. And I am right.

Also, everyone and their mother should make this pronto. SO so good, guys!! And pretty simple too 🙂 Sorry no step by steps today…my sister was visiting me this last week and I’ve been galavanting with her.

Happy Monday!
