Sweet Potato Hash PALEO Eggs Benedict Recipe
Good morning friends! I'm so glad you are here for one of my all-time favorite recipes: Sweet Potato Hash PALEO Eggs Benedict. When we made the test recipe, we gladly ate it for breakfast, lunch, and then breakfast again the next day! Oh yeah …. it is THAT GOOD!
When I heard that a group of bloggers was doing a potato recipe challenge, I wanted in. Eating paleo, we usually have yams or sweet potatoes. So yummy, right? The rich earthy flavor of yams are my personal favorite – they are so delicious, especially in this decadent recipe, paired with the egg, bacon, and hollandaise sauce. The kale or spinach at the base of the benedict helps to balance out the richness of this dish and add extra fiber.
Did you know that hollandaise sauce is paleo? It's one of my favorite sauces. This recipe has the kick of Tabasco Sauce in the hollandaise which gives it an extra layer of flavor!
Make this eggs benedict recipe ahead and enjoy it for several days!
