1can (15.5 ounces / 439 g)black beansdrained and rinsed
salt and pepperto taste
2cups (60 g)spinachchopped (optional)
parsleychopped (optional)
lime wedgesoptional
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C), and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone mat. Set aside.
Add the diced potatoes to a bowl or the baking sheet. Add the oil, salt, black pepper, and garlic powder. Mix well to combine and roast for 20 minutes. Check the potatoes and add more time until they are golden and roasted.
While the potatoes are in the oven, heat the oil in a large pan over medium-high heat.
Add the garlic and cook it by itself for 5 seconds to get the oil garlicky. Be careful not to burn the garlic.
Add the onion, zucchini, and bell pepper. Sauté over high heat for 3 minutes, mixing occasionally.
Add the mushrooms, paprika, Italian seasoning, and a pinch of salt. Mix well and lower the heat to medium-low. Cover with a lid and cook until the potatoes are done, mixing often to prevent burning. The mushrooms will release water, but if they don't and the vegetable mixture is beginning to burn, add a splash of water.
Once the potatoes are done, set them aside.
To the pan, add the black beans and spinach. Mix well and cook until the spinach is incorporated into the mixture. Taste and add salt and pepper as needed.
Add the vegetable mixture to the potatoes, and bake for 10 minutes. Optionally, sprinkle with fresh parsley and enjoy.
Notes
If meal prepping, do not add in the potatoes until ready to serve. The potatoes will get soggy with the juices of the vegetables.
Cut the veggies evenly so the hash cooks uniformly. The smaller the veggies, the quicker they'll cook.
A food chopper helps you cut even-sized pieces in a fraction of the time.
A cast-iron skillet gives you slightly charred, delicious potatoes and veggies.
Don't overcrowd the pan, or the veggies won't cook evenly or brown.
