Roast Turkey and Sweet Potato Hash with Fried Eggs

A recipe to use leftover turkey originally from chef Emeril Lagasse on Food Network
Incredibly delicious ! I didn't use sweet potatoes only yellow potatoes. Also, I had leftover stuffing and I put it in !
Ingredients
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 cup diced yellow onions
1/2 teaspoon minced garlic
1/2 cup diced red bell peppers
2 sweet potatoes, baked for 40 minutes at 400 degrees F, cooled, peeled and diced (3 cups)
2 cups diced roasted turkey breast
2 1/2 teaspoons salt, plus more for seasoning eggs
1 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper, plus more for seasoning eggs
1/4 cup turkey or chicken broth
1/4 cup heavy cream
2 tablespoons chives
2 tablespoons butter
4 large eggs
Salt
Freshly ground black pepper
Mesclun greens, for serving
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
Directions
In a large saute pan, heat the oil over moderately-high heat. Add the onion, garlic and red pepper and cook, stirring, until softened and beginning to brown, 3 to 5 minutes. Add the sweet potatoes, turkey, salt and pepper and cook, stirring occasionally, until the potatoes are beginning to brown, about 6 to 8 minutes longer. Add the broth, heavy cream and chives, cook for another 2 to 3 minutes, scraping up any brown bits that may have formed on bottom of pan. Keep warm while frying eggs.
In a large, nonstick saute pan, melt the butter over medium high heat. When the butter is foamy, carefully crack the eggs into the pan and season lightly with salt and pepper. Reduce the heat to medium-low, cover and cook until the whites are firm, 2 to 3 minutes.
Divide the hash equally between 4 warm plates, remove the eggs from the pan, and divide the eggs between the plates. Serve with mesclun greens drizzled with olive oil.

Randy Pausch
Randy Pausch, is the Carnegie Mellon professor who inspired millions with "The Last Lecture,"
Regardez son vidéo...
Il est décédé mais voici ce qu'il a inspiré :::
1. "No dying man wishes he'd spent more time at the office."
2. While you're out trying to win the respect and admiration of the outside world who usually won't give it to you, don't make those who really do care about you feel like their love and respect isn't worth anything.
3. Don't let your emotional shyness cause you to wait until it's too late to say: "I'm sorry," "Thank you," "I love you" and "I'll miss you."
4. Wealth is what you take from the world; worth is what you give back a.k.a. In the end, it's not what you have that matters, it's what you leave behind.
5. Smart is about knowing what will make you money; Wisdom is about knowing what's important.
6. Love means ALWAYS having to say (and show) you're sorry. It also means loving people not only for what they do right, but in spite of what they do wrong (because it's those latter times when they really need love and understanding and not criticism).
7. You can't make anyone love you, you can only be loving and hope that makes you more lovable.
8. Don't try to change people; accept them as they are and hope they change instead of not accepting them at all until they change.
9. When everybody admires and respects or is impressed by you or even adores you and nobody knows you, you can die of loneliness (that's what killed Marilyn Monroe).
10. Always say, "Gee, am I glad to see you," when you come home from work, so the people closest to you know they matter to you.
11. Always say, "Goodbye, I love you," when you leave your family for work, because you never know when you're going to get hit by a truck.
12. You can focus on what you're disappointed about and be a bitter person or on what you're grateful for and be a better person. The choice is up to you.
