Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Peel the sweet potatoes and grate them using a box grater or food processor to create hash browns.
In a large skillet, heat the coconut oil over medium heat. Add the grated sweet potatoes and cook, stirring occasionally, until they are slightly crispy and beginning to brown, about 10 minutes.
While the sweet potatoes cook, dice the onion and bell pepper. Mince the garlic.
Add the onion, bell pepper, and garlic to the skillet with the sweet potatoes. Cook for an additional 5 minutes until the vegetables are softened.
In the same skillet, push the vegetable mixture to one side and add the ground pork sausage to the other side. Cook and crumble the sausage with a spatula until it's fully cooked and no longer pink.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs and coconut milk until thoroughly combined. Season with salt, black pepper, and smoked paprika.
Chop the fresh spinach roughly and stir it into the egg mixture.
Add the cooked sausage and vegetable mixture to the mixing bowl with the eggs and spinach, and stir to combine all ingredients evenly.
Grease a 9x13 inch baking dish with a bit of coconut oil. Pour the mixture into the baking dish, spreading it out into an even layer.
Place the dish in the preheated oven and bake for 30 minutes until the top is golden brown and the center is set.
Once baked, remove from the oven and let it cool for 5 minutes.
Slice the green onions and sprinkle them over the top of the casserole before serving.
Serve warm and enjoy your delicious Paleo Hash Brown Casserole!
