Ingredients
8 oz ground turkey (93% lean or higher)
2 cups fresh baby spinach
1 cup sweet potato, diced small
2 large eggs
1 tbsp olive oil
1 tsp smoked paprika and cumin blend
Salt and black pepper to taste
Instructions
Dice the sweet potatoes into half-inch cubes for even cooking.
Heat half of the olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat.
Add the sweet potatoes to the skillet and cook for 8 to 10 minutes until tender and golden.
Add the ground turkey to the skillet with the potatoes.
Season with paprika, cumin, salt, and pepper, breaking the meat apart with a spatula.
Cook until the turkey reaches an internal temperature of 165 degrees Fahrenheit.
Fold in the spinach during the final minute of cooking until slightly wilted.
In a separate pot, poach or soft-boil the eggs.
Divide the turkey and veggie mixture into two bowls and top each with an egg.
Notes
You can prep the turkey and vegetable mixture up to three days in advance for quick assembly. Feel free to swap sweet potatoes for quinoa or a bed of mixed greens for variety.
