You don’t have to eat meat to enjoy the sweet, savory, spicy, and smoky flavors in the morning. This sweet potato hash topped with a runny poached egg is one of my favorite combinations for a savory breakfast.

- sliced shiitake
- diced medjool dates
- smoked paprika
- runny poached egg
- red pepper flakes

A little prep goes a long way in the morning. Wash, chop, and freeze fresh kale so that you can easily grab a handful to throw into a morning omelet.
