Ingredients

  • 2 medium sweet potatoes
  • 12 oz plant-based breakfast sausage

  • 2 tbsp olive oil

  • 0.5 tsp dried thyme
  • 0.5 tsp salt
  • 0.25 tsp black pepper
  • 2 tbsp fresh parsley

Instructions

  1. 1Place diced sweet potatoes in a microwave-safe bowl with 2 tablespoons of water. Cover and microwave on high for 4-5 minutes, or until slightly tender. Drain any excess water.

  5. 5Add the minced garlic, smoked paprika, thyme, salt, and pepper. Cook for 1 minute more until fragrant.
  6. 6Add the partially cooked sweet potatoes and the cooked plant-based sausage back to the skillet.
  7. 7Stir everything together and cook for another 5-7 minutes, or until sweet potatoes are tender and slightly browned, and everything is heated through.
  8. 8Garnish with fresh parsley before serving.
