Turkey Sweet Potato Pile
/
Although we aren’t officially doing Whole30 right now, I end up making a lot of Whole30 approved meals. Check out their website if you have no clue what this means. It was a really beneficial experience for us in a lot of ways.
I feel much less creative when it comes to making food in the summertime. I want to be outside as much as possible and we just seem to be going different places a lot. Yesterday was a busy day in the sunshine and I was getting hangry. I wanted something quick, clean, and protein filled. Enter sweet potatoes and turkey. This was the perfect simple meal that the whole family ate really well, Baby E included. And since ground turkey tends to be a more economical purchase than other meats, we will definitely keep making this one a lot!
