Bison Sausage & Sweet Potato Hash
I always enjoy a visit a health food store or natural market. I often joke that I enjoy a trip to a healthy grocery store like kids enjoy a visit to the iconic toy store FAO Schwarz. It is at these alternative markets where I find culinary inspiration.
I was inspired to make this dish when visiting Erewhon Market in Venice, California. Stopping in for breakfast sends all your senses into overload. They put out a beautiful display of warm and healthyish breakfast good for every diet and food allergy.
The dish that caught my attention was in a giant cast iron skillet. I liked the contrasting colors of the dark green kale and light orange butternut squash. That breakfast hash inspired this at home alternative.
MEAL PREP BREAKFAST HASH
I make this dish as a meal prep option for quite a few of my clients. The savory bison and the sweet potato are a nice contract. The kale rounds out the nutrition which makes this dish hearty enough to enjoy for breakfast, lunch or dinner. It holds well in the fridge for up to 5 days.
Add a fried egg or half and avocado on top to give it some variety if you are enjoying it as one of your meal prep entrees.
CHEF TIPS
Can’t find bison at your local market? Try this dish alternatively with dark turkey meat. Reach for the darker meat, as there will be more moisture when cooking and the texture will be more similar to traditional pork sausage. The white turkey meat tends to get dry and rubbery if over cooked.
Not a meat eater? This hash is just as delicious without the meat. The vegetables make a great side dish for any meal of the day.
