Sweet Potato Hash Recipe With Creamy California Avocado Sauce
From: Dara @ www.cookincanuck.com/sweet-potato-hash-recipe-with-creamy-california-avocado-sauce/
We are not strangers to sweet potato hash in our house, but this time I wanted to add a pack of protein to make the hash versatile enough to be served as a full meal. Besides, black beans and bacon know how to play very nicely with avocados.
For the sauce, the avocados are tossed in the blender with some Greek yogurt, lime juice, garlic, salt and pepper. The result is a spreadable sauce that begs you to eat it with a spoon. So it’s a good thing that there’s a little leftover in this recipe! This sweet potato hash pops with color and flavor, thanks to a creamy avocado sauce.
Prep time: 17 min
Cook time: 18 min
Total time: 35 min
Serves: 8
Ingredients
The Sauce
1 avocado, skin and seed removed
1/3 cup fat-free plain Greek yogurt

1/4 tsp ground pepper

1 1/4 lbs sweet potatoes, peeled and cut into 1/2-inch dice
3/4 lb. russet potatoes, peeled and cut into 1/2-inch dice
1 tbsp olive oil
2 garlic cloves, minced
1/2 tsp salt
3/4 cup black beans (cooked)
4 strips cooked bacon
1/4 cup minced cilantro
Directions
The Sauce:
In the bowl of a food processor or blender, combine the avocado, yogurt, garlic, lime juice, cilantro, water, salt and pepper.

Add garlic and cook for 1 minute, stirring frequently.
Stir in the cooked sweet and russet potatoes and salt.
