Adzuki Bean & Yam Hash
Ali Segersten
Alright, an elimination diet breakfast recipe seems to be in order! We've been enjoying this recipe all week. I just don't think it gets any better than yams, beans, and collard greens! What a nutritious way to start your day! Use this recipe during Phase 2 of our Elimination Diet.
Tom couldn't get enough of this recipe and kept going back for more each time I made it. In fact, I keep finding his empty bowls in the office! We have been serving this over cooked quinoa with sliced avocado on top. I bet it would also be great wrapped in Napa cabbage leaves as a "burrito."
Adzuki Bean and Yam Hash
As long as you have your adzuki beans cooked and a pot of quinoa on the stove you'll be able to whip this recipe up in no time. The key is to dice the yams very small, this way they cook quickly without burning.
To finely chop collard greens, first stack the leaves on top of each other. Then tightly roll. Use a sharp knife to thinly slice the collards, then cut those slices crosswise into small pieces.
- Heat a large skillet over medium heat. I use an 11-inch stainless steel skillet. Add olive oil, onions and a few dashes of salt. Sauté for a few minutes.
- Then add the diced yams, thyme, and cumin. Sauté for a few minutes uncovered then cover your pan and cook for about 15 to 20 minutes, stirring occasionally, until yams are tender. Watch carefully so they don't burn.
- Add adzuki beans and collard greens. Sauté a few minutes more, or until collards are tender. Add a tablespoon or two of water if needed to help them cook. Add Herbamare and freshly ground black pepper to taste.
