The first time I made this hash, I was looking for a way to use up some leftover sweet potatoes. I had no idea what to make, so I just started throwing things together. I added some chopped onion, bell pepper, and black beans, and then I stirred in some diced tomatoes with green chilies. I seasoned the hash with chili powder, cumin, salt, and black pepper, and then I let it simmer for a few minutes. The result was a delicious and satisfying hash that was perfect for a quick and easy breakfast or brunch.
