Turkey Bacon, Avocado & Sweet Potato Hash Bowl with sweet potato hash, sunny-side eggs and avocado in a terracotta ceramic bowl

Turkey bacon crisps well in a dry skillet and its rendered fat flavors the sweet potato hash. The avocado from the recipe title goes on at the end.

Why this recipe works

Steaming then frying the sweet potatoes gives tender insides and crisp edges. Smoked paprika boosts the bacon's smokiness.

Ingredient notes

Turkey bacon is leaner than pork bacon and crisps without much fat. Cook yolks firm for higher-risk groups.

Common mistakes

  • Burning the sweet potatoes on high heat.
  • Cooking eggs too hot.

What to serve with it

Hot sauce or salsa.

Meal prep

Prep the hash ahead; cook eggs fresh.
