INGREDIENTS
5 oz Lean Ground Turkey (140g)
1/2 cup Tomato Sauce (125g)
1/4 medium Onion, diced (40g)
1/4 cup diced Bell Pepper (40g)
1 Whole Wheat Bun (50g)
1 Small Sweet Potato (130g)
1 tsp Olive Oil (5g)
Seasonings: Smoked Paprika, Chili Powder, Salt, Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) for the sweet potatoes.
In a skillet over medium heat, add the lean ground turkey. Break it apart and cook until it starts to brown.
Add the diced onion and bell pepper to the turkey. Sauté until they soften, about 3-4 minutes.
Stir in the tomato sauce and season with smoked paprika, chili powder, salt, and pepper. Let the mixture simmer for 5-7 minutes until flavors meld.
While the turkey mixture cooks, peel (if desired) and cube the sweet potato into small bite-sized pieces.
Toss the sweet potato cubes with olive oil, salt, and pepper, then spread them in a single layer on a baking sheet.
Roast the sweet potatoes in the preheated oven for about 20-25 minutes, flipping halfway, until they are crispy on the edges and tender inside.
Toast the whole wheat bun lightly if desired.
Assemble the Sloppy Joe by spooning the turkey mixture onto the bun, and serve alongside the crispy roasted sweet potatoes.
