I made this Sweet Potato and Turkey Hash using up our Thanksgiving leftovers (but it would also work with Christmas leftovers too). A bonus is that this recipe also works as a breakfast, lunch, or supper! Oh that’s right….turkey day leftovers that will blow your socks off!
I love creating entirely new recipes using leftovers! It makes the leftovers not seem too much like leftovers.
We love hash over here…pretty much every meat has been turned into some form of hash over the last couple years. I think it could quite possibly be one of the world’s best meals.
Sweet Potatoes…check!
Peppers, Onions, Garlic..Check!
Meat…check!
Fried egg on top….Check!
Perfection!
Seriously…I could eat hash every weekend and not get tired of it. Imagine leftover brisket, leftover corned beef, leftover ham, leftover carne asada…the possibilities are endless!

Sweet Potato and Turkey Hash
Sweet potato and turkey hash is the perfect meal to make with leftover turkey and sweet potatoes! Great for breakfast, brunch, or dinner. Best thing is, it's a 15-minute supper!
Ingredients
- 2 leftover sweet potatoes, diced
- 2 cups leftover turkey, diced
- 1/2 onion, diced
- 1 bell pepper, diced
- 2 cloves garlic, finely minced
- 1/2 jalapeno, finely minced
- 4 fried eggs (1 per person)
- 1/2 tsp ground sage
- 1/4 tsp dried thyme
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- salt & pepper to taste
- avocado and bacon crumbles, optional
Instructions
- Heat about 1 tbsp of garlic olive oil in a large pan over medium high heat. Add cubed sweet potatoes and let cook for 1-2 minutes without turning so that the outsides edges crisp up. Stir and repeat until potatoes are crisp on all sides. Remove from pan.
- Add another 1 tbsp of garlic olive oil to pan and add pepper, onion, and jalapeno, cooking until translucent (about 3-4 minutes), then add garlic. Cook for one minute and push onion/peppers aside and add turkey. Heat for 1-2 minutes then add sage and thyme.
- Spray a small pan with non-stick cooking spray and heat over medium heat for a minute before gently cracking over pan. Cook gently over medium heat for 2 minutes and then flip to cook other side 1 minute if desired.

This does sound delicious! I’ve got a lot of leftovers sitting in my freezer and I like finding new recipes to use them up in. This would be a nice break from turkey casserole and soup!
Wendy O'Neal says
I wanted something totally different from the normal turkey day leftovers! I’ve done all the soups, casseroles, etc and wanted something different this year. Hope you like it!
