New Diet Struggles? Harissa Sweet Potato Hash Can Help Curb Your Cravings

Im doing this diet called Whole 30. Have you tried it/heard of it? It has a strict amount of rules that include no dairy, no grains (of any kind) and no legumes. It also doesnt allow for sweet treats to be made with their list of approved ingredients. Im currently on day 7 and have been ardent on following the rules to a T. Im not going to lie, it hasnt been totally easy. I went to the movies a few days ago and all I dreamed about the entire time was popcorn, Sour Patch Kids and soda. It was awful haha.

The trick to curbing my cravings throughout the day is to start the day with something healthy yet filling and comforting. For breakfast, Ive been making this because its super easy and quick (something I need in the morning) and it has a bit of spice (thanks to the harissa paste). The harissa paste also adds such a nice savory quality to the sweet potatoes too that I just love.

In the next few weeks, Im excited to share a Whole 30 approved soup and salad and even chicken wings (!!).
