Ingredients

• 4 cups small potatoes (Yukon Gold or red)
• 1 medium red bell pepper, diced
• 1 medium green bell pepper, diced
• 1 medium yellow onion, diced
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 2 cups fresh spinach leaves
• 0.5 cup low-sodium vegetable broth
• 0.75 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
• 0.5 teaspoon smoked paprika
• 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped

Directions

Step 1

Thoroughly wash the potatoes and cut them into small, evenly sized cubes. Leave the skin on for added fiber and nutrients.

Step 2

In a large non-stick skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced onion and bell peppers. Sauté for about 5 minutes until the vegetables start to soften.

Step 3

Add the minced garlic to the skillet and sauté for 1 more minute, until fragrant.

Step 4

Add the cubed potatoes to the vegetable mixture. Stir to combine and season with salt, black pepper, and smoked paprika.

Step 5

Pour the vegetable broth into the skillet. Stir well and cover the skillet with a lid. Allow the potatoes to steam for about 10 minutes.

Step 6

Remove the lid and continue to cook, stirring occasionally, for an additional 10 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender and lightly browned.

Step 7

Add the fresh spinach leaves to the skillet. Stir until the spinach wilts, about 2 minutes.

Step 8

Taste and adjust the seasoning with additional salt or pepper if needed.

Step 9

Sprinkle the potato hash with chopped fresh parsley before serving.

Step 10

Serve the hash warm, either as a side dish or as a main breakfast option. Enjoy your heart-healthy meal!
