Sweet Potato Hashbrowns with Chicken Sausage

As we continue our quest for Nectar and Ambrosia– the food of the gods, we present our most recent paleo recipe: Sweet Potato Hashbrowns with Chicken Sausage.  I like to eat this with a couple of sunny side up eggs, or these hashbrowns go well alone.  It stores well in the fridge for a few days and can be easily reheated for lunches on the go.  The roasted cumin gives a nice, mild flavor to the sweet potatoes, but you can probably use regular cumin just as easily.

Ingredients:

3 Tablespoons Olive Oil
1 large Walla Walla sweet onion, chopped
2 pounds Sweet Potatoes, shredded
1 pound Chicken or Turkey smoked sausage (we used Aidell’s Chicken and Apple)
2 teaspoons Roasted Cumin
1/2 teaspoon Fresh-ground Pepper
1/2 teaspoon Salt
1/2 teaspoon Nutmeg

Directions

1. In a large skillet over medium heat, saute the chopped onion in the olive oil until it begins to soften
2. Stir in the shredded sweet potatoes, continue to flip as needed to keep them from burning
3. Slice the sausage into 1/4″ slices
4. When the sweet potatoes begin to brown, add the sausage, roast cumin, pepper, salt and nutmeg
5. Continue flipping the mixture until the sweet potatoes are softened and browned.
6. Serve warm
