Ingredients

  • 1 tablespoon avocado oil
  • 1 pound ground turkey

  • ½ cup frozen diced onions or raw
  • 10 ounces frozen sweet potatoes

Instructions

  • Heat 1 tablespoon avocado oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add ground turkey and cook, breaking it up, until browned and no longer pink. Add salt, smoked paprika, and pepper, stir to combine.
  • Stir in garlic and cook for 1 minute or until fragrant.
