Black Bean Leftovers

Those of you keeping track will remember that a weekend or two ago I made black bean vegan burgers. Well, the recipe made four filling burgers and I only had two people to feed. Needless to say, there were leftovers. I contemplated what it was I might do with these leftovers. They needed to get eaten, and besides nothing else was really thawed or ready to go.

So, I decided to make one of my favorite breakfast-for-dinner dishes, vegetarian style. Instead of Corned Beef Hash, I made Black Bean and Sweet Potato Hash.

1 non-stick skillet
2 sweet potatoes
1/2 red onion
2 black bean burgers (see other recipe)

Peel and slice sweet potatoes in half. Place in dish with 1/4 inch of water, cover with plastic wrap and microwave on high for 5 minutes. This will make them good and ready to brown up in the hash.

In the skillet, heat the oil and sauté the onions on medium heat until the potatoes are done. When the potatoes finish cooking, chop them (carefully, they're hot!) into cubes and have them join the onions. Begin to brown them up.

When potatoes are about halfway browned, chunk up the burgers and add them to it, letting them brown up as well.

Season with salt and pepper to taste.

You know they're done when they're brown/crispy enough for you. The beauty of hash is that everything is pre-cooked so it can be as "done" as you want it to be.

good eating!
