Nanny to Mommy

 I don't know what to call this recipe. Turkey and Sweet Potato Casserole, Turkey Potato Hash? I know it is super delicious and there is so much you can deal with. Once everything is chopped this is a one pan meal. You can switch up the meat options like lean beef or venison. Or you can also use regular potatoes instead of sweet potatoes. The calories and macros just change a little bit.

As always, I use the MyFitnessPal app to find out the calorie count and you can find a video on how to add recipes that I made HERE. Eating foods I enjoy was how I lost 65 pounds and kept the weight off. YES, you can eat potatoes AND lose weight. I calorie counted and worked out. You can find more about my fitness journey on TikTok, Instagram, or follow me on Facebook.

What You Need:

2 small sweet potatoes, chopped

1 lb. ground turkey

1 yellow bell pepper, chopped

1 small yellow onion, chopped

2 cloves minced garlic (we buy in bulk)

1/4 cup water 

1 TB. chili powder

What You Do:

1. Brown ground turkey (you could use lean ground beef or venison as well) with garlic.

2. Drain grease, then add onions. Cook until soft and then add bell pepper.

3. Add sweet potatoes and 1/4 water (may need more if necessary), then turn down heat, and add chili powder. Cover pan and cook for 15 minutes.

4. Add cheese and then cover to melt for a minute or two.

So I entered the ingredients into MyFitnessPal app and I said that this meal is about 4 servings per meal. I was very shocked to actually see it said 377 calories per serving because this meal is SO filling.
