Notes

This recipe calls for cooked sweet potatoes. You can steam, boil or bake your potatoes, or use leftover sweet potatoes. Whatever you have on hand will work!

Make sure all your ingredients are chopped up and ready to use before you start cooking.

Stir your sweet potatoes gently when you add them to the hash so that they don't break up into small pieces or get mushy.
