This Sweet Potato Hash Bowl is a fantastic addition to Dr. Kaufmann's Phase 2 Diet, offering a perfect balance of nutrients while adhering to the program's principles. Packed with wholesome ingredients, this recipe is a satisfying, flavorful, and easy-to-make meal that supports gut health and energy levels.
Why It Works for Phase 2:
- Sweet Potatoes provide a nutrient-rich source of carbs that are lower on the glycemic index compared to regular potatoes, offering sustained energy without spiking blood sugar.
- Eggs deliver high-quality protein and healthy fats to keep you full and support muscle maintenance.
- Avocado adds a dose of heart-healthy monounsaturated fats and creamy texture.
- Cilantro and Salsa infuse the dish with vibrant flavors, while supporting digestion and reducing inflammation.
Pro Tips:
- For a crispier hash, allow the sweet potatoes to cook undisturbed for a few minutes before flipping.
- If you're avoiding nightshades, replace the salsa with a compliant, non-nightshade alternative, such as a drizzle of olive oil and lemon.
- Add variety by tossing in sautéed greens like spinach or kale for extra nutrients.
