I love when I go to recipes and I just get the recipe. I don’t like a big long blog posts. So I will keep this short, but I do want to say something before I share this recipe. This recipe is one that I used to make years ago and then I kind of forgot about it! You know how that happens. I’m trying to lose some weight that I’ve gained since I quit breastfeeding my youngest. This recipe is great because it’s delicious, easy, and meal prep-able. I make one big batch and it lasts me all week because no one else in my family likes it. But I promise, this one is a keeper!
Sweet Potato and Turkey Sausage Skillet
This is a quick and easy breakfast recipe, perfect for meeting healthy weight loss goals while still being delicious!
Ingredients
Method
- Preheat the oven to 350°F.Spread the frozen diced sweet potatoes on a baking sheet and drizzle lightly with olive oil. Roast for about 20 minutes, or until tender.
- While the sweet potatoes cook, heat a large skillet over medium heat. Add the ground turkey and cook until browned.
- Stir in the diced apple and diced onion. Sauté until the onion is tender and the apple softens slightly.
- Add turmeric, minced garlic, salt, and pepper. Continue cooking until the turkey is fully cooked and fragrant. If the pan seems dry, add about 1 teaspoon olive oil.
- Remove the sweet potatoes from the oven and add them to the skillet. Stir to combine.
- Turn off the heat and mix in the chopped spinach. The residual heat will wilt it.
Notes
This recipe is enough to last for a whole week. Store in the fridge and reheat in the microwave.
I like to eat this with two eggs (over easy is my favorite but whatever your preference is fine!) and salsa.
