Served on naturally sweet, roasted sweet potato 'buns', this recipe delivers a delightful balance of flavors and textures that is both satisfying and nutrient-packed.
INGREDIENTS
12 oz Lean Ground Turkey
1/2 cup Tomato Sauce
1/4 medium Onion, diced
2 cloves Garlic, minced
1/2 medium Red Bell Pepper, diced
1/2 tsp Chili Powder
Salt and Pepper to taste
1 medium Sweet Potato (used as buns, sliced)
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 425°F. Wash and slice the sweet potato lengthwise into 1/4-inch thick slices. Lay them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper; spray lightly with cooking oil and roast for about 20-25 minutes, flipping halfway, until tender and slightly crisp on the edges. These will serve as your sweet potato buns.
While the sweet potato slices roast, heat a skillet over medium heat. Add the diced onion and minced garlic, sautéing until softened and fragrant, about 2-3 minutes.
Add the diced red bell pepper and cook for an additional 2 minutes until just tender.
Crumbles in the lean ground turkey and cook until no longer pink, breaking it apart as it cooks. Stir in the tomato sauce and chili powder, mixing well. Let the mixture simmer on low heat for about 5-7 minutes to meld the flavors. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
Once the turkey mixture has thickened slightly, remove from heat.
To assemble each slider, place a generous spoonful of the turkey sloppy joe mixture between two roasted sweet potato slices acting as buns. Serve immediately and enjoy a wholesome, nutrient-packed meal.
