Ingredients
- 1 Tbsp olive oil
- 2 garlic frozen cubes
- 1.25 lb. ground turkey 93/7 lean

- 2 tsp salt
- 1 tsp black pepper

Instructions
- Heat olive oil and garlic in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the ground turkey and cook, crumbling with a wooden spoon as you go, until no longer pink.
- Add the sweet potatoes, asparagus, onions, water, Italian seasoning, salt and pepper. Give everything a good toss to evenly distribute the spices.
- Cover with a lid and cook for 10-15 minutes or until potatoes are tender. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking and add more water if needed. Then remove from heat.

Notes
- Cooking tip: Don’t overload your skillet! Be sure you have enough room in your skillet so everything has enough room to cook evenly. If you only have a small cast iron skillet, I'd recommend cooking in batches or you can bake your sweet potatoes in the oven before adding.
- There are lots of ways you can switch this simple recipe up!
- Sub a different meat: you can use ground beef, ground chicken, rotisserie chicken, etc.!
- Add different veggies: add any extra veggies you love! You could add broccoli, spinach, brussels sprouts, kale, bell peppers, mushrooms, etc.
- Switch up the cheese: I used mozzarella to keep it simple but this would be delicious with parmesan cheese, pepper jack, goat cheese, or even feta!
- Add extra seasoning: use your favorite seasoning blend like cumin, curry, paprika, sage, chili powder, onion powder, thyme, or rosemary to add additional flavor!
- Extra carbs: add an extra can of black beans, pinto beans or corn!
- Fresh herbs: sprinkle some herbs on top like fresh cilantro or basil!
- Make it creamy: add a dollop of sour cream or greek yogurt to add extra creaminess!
