This recipe is inspired by the classic Southern breakfast dish, breakfast hash. Traditionally, breakfast hash is made with corned beef, but we've given it a healthy and flavorful twist by using lean turkey sausage instead. Sweet potatoes are a great source of fiber and vitamins, and they add a natural sweetness to the dish. Bell peppers and onions add color and crunch, and the garlic and spices give it a boost of flavor. Fresh parsley adds a bright and herbaceous finish to the dish. This recipe is also incredibly easy to make. Simply brown the turkey sausage in a skillet, then add the sweet potatoes, bell pepper, onion, garlic, and spices. Cook until the sweet potatoes are tender, stirring occasionally. Serve hot, garnished with fresh parsley.
