Not sure what to do with those leftover potatoes calling your name in the refrigerator…I have an idea, bust them out and make Southwest Skillet Potatoes! Perfect as a hearty breakfast or served for dinner as a side, either way these babies are delicious. Start with cold baked potatoes, any type will do, and cut into bite size pieces. Throw them into a hot skillet with a little coconut oil and any other veggies you have on hand. I guarantee your family will eat these up!
Southwest Skillet Potatoes
I’ve added a nutrition boost to my skillet potatoes by adding fresh, chopped kale. Most people eat it right up!
Benefits of kale:
Kale is high in fiber, low in calories, and per calorie, contains more iron than beef. Rich in vitamins K, A, and C, kale is considered one of the most nutrient dense superfood vegetables available today.
Where to find fresh, local kale in San Diego County?
- Check out the San Diego Farm Bureau for a listing of Farmers Markets near you.
- Jimbos Naturally has a beautiful selection of local produce available every day.
