This sweet potato hash pops with color and flavor, thanks to a creamy avocado sauce. Thanks to California Avocados for sponsoring this post and helping me to share this recipe with you.

As Kristen of Dine & Dish and I gear up for an avocado link-up party, we are happily slicing and dicing California Avocados into every meal that crosses our kitchen tables.

There is no doubt that avocados fit snugly into many breakfast dishes. On bush school mornings, we like to serve our kids Make-Ahead Egg Wraps with Ham, Avocado & Salsa. When we have a little more time on the weekend, Southwestern Eggs Benedict with Black Beans Spread, Avocado & Salsa hits the spot.

We are not strangers to sweet potato hash in our house, but this time I wanted to add a pack of protein to make the hash versatile enough to be served as a full meal. Besides, black beans and bacon know how to play very nicely with avocados.

For the sauce, the avocados are tossed in the blender with some Greek yogurt, lime juice, garlic, salt and pepper. The result is a spreadable sauce that begs you to eat it with a spoon. So it's a good thing that there's a little leftover in this recipe!

While you're busy dreaming up California avocado recipes for the link-up, be sure to take a minute or two to check out Kristen's California Avocado Breakfast Casserole. Oh yeah.

The sweet potato hash:

The sauce:

In the bowl of a food processor or blender, combine the avocado, yogurt, garlic, lime juice, cilantro, water, salt and pepper. Blend until smooth.

The potatoes:

Bring a large saucepan of lightly salted water to a boil over high heat. Add sweet and russet potatoes and cook until just tender, about 5 to 8 minutes. Drain.

Heat the olive oil in a large skillet (preferably cast-iron) set over medium-high heat.

Add garlic and cook for 1 minute, stirring frequently.

Stir in the cooked sweet and russet potatoes and salt. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the potatoes start to brown, 8 to 10 minutes.

Stir in the black beans, bacon and cilantro.

Divide between 8 plates and top each portion with 1 tablespoon of the avocado sauce.
