Chorizo Sweet Potato Hash

It's 8 PM. You get home late from yoga, and you're ravenous after doing lots of Downward Dogs and Warrior poses. What do you do? Order in? Pray for leftovers to be in the fridge? Of course not! Get creative and throw some stuff together for dinner.

This time I felt particularly inventive, as I don't usually make stir fries or hashes or one-skillet dinners (I'm the one who uses all their pots and pans all the time). However, I figured I'd combine two of my favorite things (besides pasta) - sweet potatoes and chorizo - in a hash! Super easy (<30 minutes, take THAT Rachael Ray), and super flavorful.

Of course there has to be carbs-on-carbs involved :).

Chorizo Sweet Potato Hash
Serves 2

3 Tbsp olive oil
2 sweet potatoes, diced into 1/2 inch cubes
3 cloves garlic, chopped
1 1/2 tsp ground cumin
1/4 tsp ground nutmeg
2 links chorizo sausage, removed from casing
1 tsp fresh rosemary
1 cup cous cous, prepared according to package directions
salt and pepper

Heat oil over medium-high heat. Add potatoes and garlic, add spices, and saute until potatoes are softened. Push to the side of the pan, and brown the chorizo. Add rosemary.

Serve over cous cous, and enjoy!
