We’ve been making white potato hash browns in the house quite often in the mornings and I wanted to try something using the healthier and more flavorful sweet potato. I had the idea to make something akin to a crust with the sweet potato hash browns to hold a yummy Mexican concoction. I was pleased to see the whole thing eaten in one sitting by the fam! Let me know what you think.
