A comforting and nutritious one-pan bake featuring ground turkey, sweet potatoes, and mixed vegetables, perfect for weeknight dinners.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pound ground turkey
  • 2 large sweet potatoes, peeled and diced (about 1/2-inch pieces)
  • 1 cup mixed vegetables (bell peppers, zucchini, carrots)
  • 1 onion, diced
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • Olive oil for sautéing
  • Fresh herbs for garnish (parsley or thyme)

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. Heat a tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the diced onion and minced garlic, sautéing until translucent, about 3 to 4 minutes.
  3. Add the ground turkey, breaking it up with a spoon and cooking until no pink remains, about 6 to 8 minutes. Season with salt, pepper, and paprika.
  4. Stir in the diced sweet potatoes and mixed vegetables, cooking for an additional 2 to 3 minutes to combine flavors.
  5. Transfer the mixture to a greased baking dish and spread it into an even layer. Cover tightly with foil.
  6. Bake covered for 25 minutes to let sweet potatoes soften.
  7. Remove the foil and bake an additional 15 minutes until sweet potatoes are tender and edges are lightly browned.
  8. Let rest for a few minutes, garnish with chopped fresh parsley or thyme, and serve.
