Coco-NUT-ty, Sweet Potato, and Brussels Hash

Servings: 1 hungry person
Preparation Time: 20 minutes

Ingredients:

• 1/2 cup coconut peanut butter cottage cheese blend (recipe to follow)
• 1 large sweet potato, cubed
• 1 cup Brussels sprouts, quartered
• olive or coconut oil
• 2 cloves garlic
• 1/2 large onion, diced
• 2–3 mushrooms, chopped
• salt and black pepper
• balsamic vinegar
• handful dried berries (or raisins, or Craisins)
• 1 egg, (large)
• handful cheddar cheese

Coconut Peanut Butter Cottage Cheese Blend:

• 1 part Dijon mustard
• 1 part honey
• 1 part apple cider vinegar
• 1 part coconut peanut butter
• 2 parts cottage cheese

Directions:

First you have to make the coco-NUT-ty part of this dish. Just blend all the ingredients for the coconut peanut butter cottage cheese blend together. I just gave ratios so you can make as little or as much as you want. I made a big batch, and stored it in an empty salsa jar.

I put a pot of water on to boil, threw the sweet potato cubes in there, and boiled it for about 4 minutes. Then I threw the Brussels sprouts in and cooked it all for another 1–2 minutes. Drain and set aside.

Next, heat oil in a large skillet. Cook the garlic, onions, and mushrooms together. Season lightly with salt and pepper. Increase the heat to high. Toss in the Brussels sprouts, sweet potato, and dried berries with a splash of balsamic vinegar and cook over high heat.

In the meantime, in another skillet, fry up an egg just the way you like it. When the Brussels sprouts and sweet potato have a bit of sear to them, turn off the heat. Stir in a few dollops of the coconut PB cottage cheese blend; stir to coat.

Ladle the hash onto a serving dish. Top with egg, sprinkle with cheese, and drizzle more of that coconut peanut butter blend on top.
