Instructions
 

  • Heat a skillet over medium-high and warm the oil.
    1 tablespoon olive oil
  • Add the sweet potatoes and cook until the cubes start to carmelize a bit. Let them sit for 30-seconds to a minute before tossing. This will get you that nice brown color and pull out the flavor!
    1 sweet potato
  • Once the potatoes start to soften, about 5-minutes or so, add the onion, garlic, ground turkey and spices. Continue to cook until there you see no more pink on the turkey, about 10-minutes.
    1 sweet onion chopped, 3 cloves garlic minced, 1 lb 93% lean ground turkey, 1 teaspoon allspice, 2 teaspoon rosemary, ½ teaspoon white pepper, Salt to taste
  • Let sit for a minute, then serve!

Notes

  • I cook the sweet potatoes first to give them time to soften without over-cooking the turkey and drying it out. 
  • You could, of course, add any other veggies in here like spinach, kale or even broccoli or cauliflower. I just kept it simple.
