Sweet potatoes are a creamy addition to this breakfast classic. To avoid mushy hash, don't boil the potatoes too long; remove them from the water while they're still al dente.

I substituted bacon for Canadian Bacon (its what I had on hand) and omitted the nutmeg. Topped it off with half an avocado, sliced. Yum!! And leftovers reheated perfectly. Definitely will be a go-to breakfast.

Perfect post-thanksgiving recipe to use up stray sweet potatoes and any other veggies lingering in the fridge. www.greasycamera.com

Made this for Father's Day brunch. The only thing I changes was using center cut bacon instead of Canadian bacon and omitting the nutmeg. The dish was a big hit and everyone agreed it was a keeper.

Amazing, especially since it's coming from a person that hates eating sweet potatoes. I followed the recipe exactly and we couldn't get enough of it.
