• 1 can (15 ounces), drained and rinsed Black beans
• 1 medium, diced Red bell pepper
• 1 medium, diced Green bell pepper
• 1 small, diced Red onion
• 3 minced Garlic cloves
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 1 teaspoon Ground cumin
• 1 teaspoon Smoked paprika
• 0.5 teaspoon Chili powder
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
• 0.25 cup, chopped (optional) Fresh cilantro
• 1 sliced (optional, for garnish) Avocado

Directions

Step 1

Peel and dice the sweet potatoes into small, bite-sized cubes (about 1/2-inch).

Step 2

Heat a large skillet over medium heat and add 2 tablespoons of olive oil.

Step 3

Once the oil is hot, add the diced sweet potatoes and cook for about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they begin to soften and brown slightly.

Step 4

Add the diced red onion, red bell pepper, and green bell pepper to the skillet. Cook for another 5 minutes, stirring often, until the vegetables are slightly softened.

Step 5

Stir in the minced garlic, ground cumin, smoked paprika, chili powder, salt, and black pepper. Cook for 1-2 minutes until fragrant.

Step 6

Add the drained and rinsed black beans to the skillet. Stir everything together and let the mixture cook for an additional 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the sweet potatoes are fork-tender and all the flavors are well combined.

Step 7

Taste and adjust seasoning if needed. Remove the skillet from heat.

Step 8

Garnish with fresh chopped cilantro and serve immediately. Optionally, top each serving with sliced avocado for a creamy addition.

Step 9

Enjoy your Sweet Potato Black Bean Hash as a standalone meal or serve it with toast, tortillas, or a fried egg on top!
