Turkey Hash
My fellow #fitfam peeps and I started up a new workout program last week, and this has become a regular member of our meal plan! We are cutting out grains and, instead, getting the bulk of our carbs through whole foods like potatoes, beans, and winter squash. Needless to say, recipes with these ingredients are much desired! (I mean I love baked potatoes, but I couldn't eat one every day!)
This recipe does not disappoint! With a healthy balance of carbs, protein, and veggies, you'll be able to properly fuel your body without feeling guilty. AND, most importantly, it is family friendly! My stepdaughter asked for seconds. #winning
Turkey Hash
4 servings
Ingredients
1 lb lean ground turkey
1/4 cup chopped green bell pepper
1/4 cup chopped onion
1 garlic clove, minced
2 cups cooked, chopped potato (you can use any kind, even sweet potato!)
1 tsp dried oregano
1 tsp garlic powder
Salt & pepper to taste
Directions
1. Cook the ground turkey in a large skillet over medium-high heat until no longer pink, breaking it up into chunks as it cooks. Drain the grease and set the turkey aside. Don't wipe the pan!
2. Add the bell pepper, onion, and garlic to the pan and saute over medium-high heat for a few minutes until softened.
3. Add in the cooked turkey and potatoes, then the seasonings. Stir and heat over medium-low heat until all ingredients are warm and blended.
4. Distribute evenly into four bowls, and enjoy!
Note: If your turkey seems too dry after adding all of the ingredients together, you can add a tsp or two of olive oil OR a little low-sodium chicken broth.
