Bacon and Beet Hash

Makes 6 servings

4 fresh medium beets, cut into 1/2-inch cubes 1 red onion, cut into 1-inch pieces

1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil

4 fresh rosemary sprigs, plus more for garnish 1 teaspoon cinnamon

Coarse salt to taste

Freshly ground pepper to taste

8 slices bacon, cut into 1-inch pieces

1 pound lean ground beef

1 cup shredded 50% light cheddar cheese 8 eggs

1/2 cup sliced green onions

Heat oven to 450 degrees. Toss beets and onions in a rimmed baking sheet with oil. Arrange in a single layer. Lay rosemary on top, then sprinkle with cinnamon, salt and pepper. Roast 15 to 20 minutes or until soft enough to pierce with a fork. Remove from oven; discard rosemary. Meanwhile, cook bacon in a large oven-safe skillet on medium, 3 to 4 minutes or until crispy and browned. Drain on plate lined with paper towels. In the same skillet, cook beef 6 minutes or until no longer pink; drain fat. Season beef with salt and pepper. Add roasted vegetables and cooked bacon to skillet and toss to combine. Sprinkle top of hash with cheese. Using a large spoon, make 8 indentions in mixture and carefully crack an egg into each, making sure not to break yolk. Season eggs with salt and pepper; bake about 8 minutes or until whites are set but yolks are runny. Remove from oven; spoon hash onto plates. Garnish with onions and rosemary sprigs.
