Instructions
Make the Salsa Grits
- In a medium-sized saucepan over medium-high heat, pour in the milk and chicken stock. Heat slowly until the mixture begins to lightly bubble, then add the salsa.
- When the mixture begins moving again, add the grits and stir vigorously to incorporate.
- Cover and lower the heat, cooking for 30-45 minutes, or until the grits have soaked up all the liquid. Open the grits up every 5 or so minutes to stir so they do not become lumpy as they cook.
- When the grits have soaked up the liquid, remove from the heat, and add the cream cheese, whisking until the cheese has melted into the grits.
- Keep warm until time to serve.
Make the Sweet Potato Black Bean Hash
- While the grits cook, dice the potato into ½” cubes and rinse and drain the canned black beans.
- In a large skillet over medium-high heat, add the olive oil.
- When the oil is warm, add the diced sweet potato to the skillet. Season with salt and pepper, and cook for 8-10 minutes, or until the sweet potato has softened and begins to brown on all sides.
- When the sweet potato has softened, add the black beans, and stir to incorporate in the sweet potato. Cook for 2-3 minutes.
- Add the salsa to the pan, stirring constantly before removing from the heat.
- Transfer the hash to a bowl, and keep warm for later.
Cook the Turkey
- Cook the ground turkey in the same skillet over medium-high heat. Remove the sausage from its packaging, and break up with a wooden spoon as it cooks, breaking it down into bite-sized pieces.
- When the turkey is completely browned and cooked through, transfer to a plate, and keep warm.
Fry the Eggs
- In the same skillet, fry the eggs one at a time. Depending on how you like your fried eggs, the cook time will vary.
- Crack the egg into an individual bowl and pour into the preheated skillet. Cook over high heat until the yolk is the desired consistency. Remove the egg from the skillet, and cook the other to order.
Prepare the Bowls
- With all the ingredients together, assembly for these bowls is simple.
- Scoop the Salsa Grits into the bowl.
- Top the grits with the Sweet Potato Black Bean Hash.
- Add the turkey sausage to the bowl, as well as the avocado slices.
- Top the ingredients with the egg, cooked to your specification.
- Sprinkle the cheese on top of the bowls, and enjoy immediately!
Notes
- Substitution alert: Instead of white cheddar, you can use pepperjack or any other cheese that you like .
