Pecan Free Beef and Brussels Sprouts Hash
Hearty, colorful, and packed with real-food ingredients, this skillet hash is the kind of weeknight dinner that looks impressive but comes together in a single pan. Ground beef gets browned with sweet potato, shredded Brussels sprouts, and warm spices like turmeric and ginger, then finished with a splash of apple cider vinegar and coconut aminos for a savory, slightly tangy kick. The sweet potato adds natural sweetness and body, while the Brussels sprouts char at the edges just enough to give the whole dish a satisfying depth. Coconut oil ties everything together and keeps the recipe completely free of tree nut oils or cross-contamination concerns that can sneak into other skillet meals. It's a genuinely filling one-pan situation — the kind where you scrape the skillet clean and immediately think about making it again. A scatter of fresh parsley at the end brightens everything up and makes it look like you really had your act together.

Instructions
- 1
Heat 1 tbsp of the coconut oil in a 12-inch skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering. Add the diced sweet potato in a single layer and cook, stirring every 2–3 minutes, until the edges are golden and the pieces are just tender when pierced with a fork, about 10–12 minutes. Transfer to a plate and set aside.

Add another 1 tbsp coconut oil to the same skillet over medium-high heat. Add the onion and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened and translucent, about 4–5 minutes. Add the garlic and cook, stirring constantly, until fragrant, about 1 minute, watching closely so it does not brown.
