Nothing says Southern Thanksgiving like collard greens and sweet potatoes. It's an easy to prepare, slow cooked dish that can be made in abundance and upcycled later. Thanksgiving will be a bit different this year and it may be hard to predict which recipes to make because our gatherings may be smaller. I would say make all of your favorites without letting any food go to waste! I came up with a delicious recipe to upcycle any leftover collard greens and sweet potatoes into a delicious hash that is perfect as a main dish with eggs or a side dish that can be eaten for breakfast, lunch, or dinner.
I love using the Morton® Fine Himalayan Pink Salt because the crystals dissolve quickly and blend easily, giving an even flavor in each and every bite. I top off the recipe with Morton® Coarse Himalayan Pink Salt to add both a pop of flavor and fun pink color.
Ingredients
2 tbsp coconut oil (or your preferred oil)
2 cups of leftover roasted sweet potatoes, squash or roasted potatoes
1-1/2 cups of cooked collard greens
1 medium red onion chopped
1 small or medium bell pepper red, orange and yellow, chopped
Heat a large skillet, preferably cast iron, over medium heat and add the coconut oil to melt.
Add the onions and peppers. Season with ¼ tsp Morton® Fine Himalayan Pink Salt and ¼ tsp black pepper and continue to cook and stir until translucent and the onions and peppers are soft – about 5 minutes.
Add garlic and sauté until fragrant – about 30 seconds.
Add the sweet potatoes and collard greens and combine all ingredients using a folding method.
Sprinkle with ½ tsp smoked paprika, ¼ tsp Morton® Fine Himalayan Pink Salt and ¼ tsp black pepper.
Continue to flip/turn the hash uncovered, until the outside begins to brown and until heated through about 5-7 minutes.
Finish with Morton® Coarse Himalayan Pink Salt, parsley and scallions.
Top with an egg cooked your favorite way (optional).
Serve hot and enjoy!
