PIN Buffalo Chicken Paleo Sweet Potato Hash
(Originally posted in 2014, updated January 2019. Narration not changed)
I dislike sports.
Basketball, football, curling (Wikipedia told me it’s a sport, don’t look at me like that), hockey… you name it, it’s not for me.
Are you judging the Canadian for hating hockey?
The only sport I can get into is Olympic Figure Skating. Which may or may not have to do with the fact that there are pretty dresses and lots of sparkles.
Like I told you in last weeks crock pot low carb buffalo chicken soup, Mr. FFF, however, is a sports FANATIC. Especially football. And by “fanatic” I mean he has multiple old games taped so that he can re-watch them when the season is over.
Which is basically how this buffalo chicken sweet potato hash recipe was born.
It was a lovely, Saturday morning. I woke up excited to spend the day with my hubs, as Saturday is always “date day” for us.
That excitement went downhill x 12 when I went into our living room to find the hubby, eyeballs glued to an old rerun of a Huskers football game.
I immediately knew what date day was going to look like – “quality time” watching some football.
Whomp. Whomp. Whomp.
I had 2 options: 1) Pout and complain and generally be an annoying human being, or 2) Be the greatest wife EVER and make some game-day-style grub.
I chose option 2. Which, my friends, was the right choice.
Side note: I usually choose option 1. Not sure what came over me that day.
Now, what to make. I debated between our favorite Crockpot Healthy Buffalo Chicken Dip, Buffalo Chicken Egg Muffins OR paleo buffalo chicken casserole.
They all sounded good, but I was looking for something new. Something that would give me “Best Wife Ever” status.
Then, it dawned on me. It’s breakfast time. I could make a riff on his fav sweet potato hash Browns and make a sweet potato HASH with eggs would be the perfect, manly, comfort breakfast AND I had chicken sausage.
Plus, there’s that whole “buffalo chicken is on the most classic game day flavors of life” thing that we talked about last week.
How to make Sweet Potato Hash
- Peel and cube your sweet potatoes
- Place them a pot of boiling water and cook them until JUST tender. This is the SECRET to making the best sweet potato hash as it allows the insides of the potatoes to cook without the outsides burning.
- Add the potatoes and vegetables into a hot frying pan with oil and cook until golden brown. Then, add in your sausage and cook until brown.
- Make some spaces in the veggies and crack eggs into them. Cover and cook until they’re cooked to your desired done-ness
- DEVOUR
BOOM. A buffalo chicken sweet potato breakfast hash happened. Oh, and in only 30 minutes AND in one pan.
WINNER WINNER BUFFALO CHICKEN….breakfast? We’ll go with it.
My hubby? Well, let’s just say that we have eaten this paleo sweet potato hash morning since, even without watching sports games.
Nothing starts your day better than sausage, spicy, saucy goodness and runny egg yolks.
Nothing.

I hate you have to box everything back up girl BUT this recipe looks to die for. At least you are eating well right? 😉
Taylor Kiser says
Me too! BUT it’s only 2 mins away,so we don’t need to pack it up as carefully so it’s easier.
And yes, this is very true 😉 Thanks girlfriend!

Good luck with the second move! That’s good you’ll get some better lighting!! This chicken hash looks AWESOME! Pinned 🙂
Taylor Kiser says
It will be worth it! Thanks for the good wishes and pin girl! 😀
Renee @Two in the Kitchen says
What a great hubby you have for moving because of poor photo lighting! This hash is making me hungry. My breakfast protein shake looks a whole lot less appealing now!!
Taylor Kiser says
Right! I think so too 🙂
Oh no, I’m sorry…sort of 😉
Thanks Renee!

Game day = buffalo chicken for sure! This hash looks so delicious. Good luck with moving again!
PS – I would totally move for a bigger kitchen and better lighting too 🙂
Taylor Kiser says
Thanks Bianca! Glad you agree that buffalo chicken is good for game day and moving for lighting is totally legit 😉
[email protected]+Pixie+Dust+Kitchen says
I’ve already staked out Boyfriend’s apartment for the best lighting for when I move next year, no judgement for moving to get better lighting! (And a swankier kitchen is always a plus!) I’m always down for a good hash, especially one that’s acceptable to eat all day because it’s “football food!”
Taylor Kiser says
Man, I wish I could have pre-staked, but we had to rent our place sight unseen! Thanks for no judgement and hash love! 😀
[email protected] says
Your hubby definitely sounds like a keeper! And I totally get it—bad lighting is just the worst and just will not work. Also SCORE that you got an even better kitchen! 😀
This gorgeous hash has pre-weekend breakfast written aaaall over it. Bfast hashes are my FAV thing ever! 🙂
Taylor Kiser says
Right!? I was unsure if I should keep him before, but know I know 😉 haha kidding!
Thanks girl! I love a good hash too!
Julie V. (@SomebodysDinner) says
Wow, this looks great! I love all the flavors.
And in the future when I’m looking to move (whenever that may be…) I’ll remember to check out lighting BEFORE signing on and unpacking 🙂
Taylor Kiser says
Haha yes! Definitely before! 😉 thanks so much!
Amanda says
Adding these ingredients to my shopping list! I need to make this ASAP!
Taylor Kiser says
Thanks lady! 🙂
