  • Total Time: 35 minutes
  • Yield: 6 servings

Ingredients

Protein & Meat

  • 1 pound ground lean turkey

Vegetables & Fruits

  • 2/3 cup diced onion
  • 1 teaspoon minced garlic
  • 3.5 cups peeled and diced sweet potato
  • 1.5 cups diced apples
  • 1.5 cups sliced Brussels sprouts

Liquids & Oils

  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1/2 cup vegetable or chicken broth

Spices & Seasonings

  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/8 teaspoon pepper

Instructions

  1. Cook the ground turkey: Heat a large skillet over medium heat and add olive oil. Place the ground lean turkey in the skillet, seasoning it with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the turkey is fully cooked and no longer pink inside.
  2. Sauté onions and garlic: Add diced onions and minced garlic to the skillet with the cooked turkey. Cook for an additional 3 minutes, stirring frequently, until the onions soften and become translucent. Then, transfer the turkey and onions mixture into a bowl and set aside.
  3. Cook vegetables and fruits: In the same skillet, add the sliced Brussels sprouts, diced apples, and peeled diced sweet potatoes. Pour in the vegetable or chicken broth, then cover the skillet with a lid. Allow this mixture to cook for about 15 minutes over medium heat until the vegetables are tender.
  4. Combine and finish cooking: Return the cooked turkey and onion mixture to the skillet with the softened vegetables and fruits. Stir well to combine all ingredients. Cover the skillet again and cook for an additional 5 minutes to let the flavors meld. Serve hot and enjoy!
