Balsamic Sweet Potato, Sausage, and Mushroom Saute

We featured a version of this rustic saute way back in 2013, but we've brought it back with the addition of sausage for added protein. It's a great cold weather meal that is both hearty and packed with nutritious ingredients.

Make

  1. Place a large saute pan or wok with first part of oil over medium heat. Add mushrooms and sausage. Saute until mushrooms are nearly tender, 6 to 8 minutes.

  2. Add shallots, sage, and some salt and saute for 1 minute.

  3. Stir in spinach and balsamic sauce until everything is combined. Continue cooking until spinach is completely wilted, 4 to 5 minutes.

  4. While spinach is cooking, place a large nonstick pan (for eggs) over low-medium heat.

  5. Return to sausage and stir in sweet potatoes until everything is combined. Taste and season with some salt and pepper. Set aside, covered to keep warm.

  6. To the heated nonstick pan, add second part of oil. Crack eggs into heated oil and cook to your liking - on one side for sunny-side up or flip them for over-easy.

  7. Divide saute between serving plates. Top each portion with an egg and serve with lemon slices on the side. Enjoy!
