Ingredients
  

2 medium sweet potatoes, peeled and diced

2 medium apples (preferably Granny Smith or Honeycrisp), cored and diced

1 medium red onion, finely chopped

2 tablespoons olive oil

1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

1/2 teaspoon nutmeg (optional)

1/2 teaspoon salt

1/4 teaspoon black pepper

1 cup baby spinach (optional, for added greens)

1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley (for garnish)

1 tablespoon maple syrup (optional, for added sweetness)

Instructions
 

Prep the Ingredients: Begin by peeling and dicing the sweet potatoes into small 1/2-inch cubes. Core and dice the apples into similar-sized pieces to ensure even cooking. Finely chop the red onion.

    Cook the Sweet Potatoes: In a large skillet over medium heat, add the olive oil. Once hot, add the diced sweet potatoes. Season with salt, black pepper, and cook for about 10-12 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they are tender and slightly golden.

      Add the Onions: Push the sweet potatoes to one side of the skillet and add the chopped red onion. Sauté for about 3-4 minutes until the onions begin to soften and become translucent.

        Incorporate the Apples and Spices: Add the diced apples, ground cinnamon, and nutmeg to the skillet. Stir everything together, ensuring the sweet potatoes, onions, and apples are well combined. Continue to cook for another 5-7 minutes until the apples have softened but still hold their shape.

          Add Spinach (optional): If using baby spinach, add it to the pan and stir until wilted, about 1-2 minutes.

            Finish and Serve: Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary. If you prefer a touch of sweetness, drizzle with maple syrup and stir to combine. Remove from heat and garnish with freshly chopped parsley.

              Enjoy: Serve warm as a delightful breakfast, brunch dish, or as a hearty side for dinner.
