My dad's side of the family is Hispanic, and I always enjoy making Hispanic or Mexican dishes. This one is a Tex-Mex dish with a sweet potato hash. I like to use Jasmine Rice in my Rice cooker. It saves me time, and I don’t have to watch it. This dish is very savory with warm, softened sweet potatoes, proteins of black beans, and, of course, eggs.
