Breakfast Hash

BREAKFAST HASH

(Serves 4)

Ingredients
  • 1 Tbsp coconut or avocado oil; divided
  • 1 lb clean sausage (Whole Foods has some), or any type of ground meat
  • 1 green apple; cubed
  • 1 onion; diced
  • 12 oz butternut squash; cubed (can also use sweet potato)
  • 6 slices of sugar -free, uncured, bacon such as Pedersons; cooked (omit for low histamine)
  • 3 C spinach (or kale for low histamine)
  • 1 1/2 tsp dried sage
  • 3/4 tsp dried thyme
  • 3/4 tsp garlic powder
  • 3/4-1 tsp sea salt
  • 1/4 tsp mace (or nutmeg is not sensitive or on AIP)
Directions
  1. Combine ground meat, sage, thyme, garlic powder, salt and mace in small bowl. Stir with large spoon or use your hands to combine. Set aside.

  2. Place a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add 2 tsp. coconut oil and heat just until oil starts to shimmer. Add onion and butternut squash. Sauté for 7-8 minutes, stirring occasionally.

  3. Add diced apple. Cook an additional 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.

  4. Move vegetable mixture to one side of the pan. Add 1 tsp. coconut oil and ground meat mixture. Allow meat to cook a few minutes before breaking it up with a spatula or wooden spoon.

  5. Continue to cook 5-6 minutes or until turkey is cooked through and no longer pink. Add in cooked bacon and stir to combine vegetables, ground meat, and bacon.

  6. Place kale/spinach on top of hash and cover with a lid. Allow greens to wilt, about 1-2 minutes. Stir, season with additional salt and serve.

*Family Healthy Choice Options (or for those not following a paleo lifestyle): sprinkle with cheese for everyone else or top with an over easy egg. It’s a “still healthy but the family will eat” food.*

*This recipe is so versatile. Change up your meat type, sweet potato for squash, greens type, or even omit the mace and add more of the savory spices. With so many variation options, you are bound to find one you like. *
