Beat PCOS Breakfast Hash

 Ingredients:

12 oz. Bacon
12 oz. Sweet Potato/Yam, peeled and grated
1.2 lb. Brussels Sprouts, either shredded or sliced finely
1 Red Bell Pepper
1 small Red Onion
Salt and Pepper
4 Eggs

Instructions:

Over a medium heat, cook the bacon with a little cooking oil or fat in a large skillet for 5-7 minutes.

Once cooked, transfer the bacon to a large bowl, keeping the grease in the skillet (this is good fat).

Add the brussels sprouts stirring initially to coat them in the bacon grease.  Cook for 5-7 minutes stirring only occasionally so that the sprouts char a little creating a nice sweet flavor.  Once cooked, add the brussels sprouts to the bowl with the bacon.

Add a tablespoon of cooking oil or fat to the skillet then add the sweet potato, bell pepper, and red onion.  Cook for 10 minutes or so, stirring regularly, until tender.

At this point your hash is done, so it's just a matter of combining all the cooked ingredients either in the skillet or your large bowl and seasoning to taste.  Adding plenty of salt and pepper is a good place to start, but you might also like to try lemon pepper or a sprinkling of garlic powder for something a little different.

To complete the meal, fry an egg or two in plenty of oil and serve with the hash.  For some extra flavor, this dish goes well with either some sugar-free ketchup, a sprinkling of nutritional yeast, or a little hot sauce.
