INGREDIENTS
1 medium baked Sweet Potato
4 ounces Lean Ground Turkey
1/2 cup Diced Tomatoes
1 medium Red Bell Pepper, diced
1 small Yellow Onion, chopped
2 cloves Garlic, minced
1 ounce Sharp Cheddar Cheese, shredded
1 teaspoon Chili Powder
1 teaspoon Ground Cumin
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F. Wash the sweet potato thoroughly, prick it a few times with a fork, and bake directly on the oven rack for about 45-50 minutes until tender and the skin is crispy.
While the sweet potato bakes, heat a non-stick pan over medium heat. Add the chopped yellow onion and diced red bell pepper. Sauté until softened, about 3-4 minutes.
Add the minced garlic to the pan and cook for an additional 1 minute until fragrant.
Add the lean ground turkey to the pan. Break it apart with a spatula and cook until it is no longer pink, about 5-6 minutes.
Stir in the diced tomatoes, chili powder, ground cumin, salt, and pepper. Allow the mixture to simmer for 4-5 minutes so that the flavors meld together. Adjust seasoning as needed.
Once baked, slice the sweet potato open and fluff the inside lightly with a fork. Spoon the hot turkey chili over the sweet potato.
Finish by sprinkling shredded sharp cheddar cheese on top so it slightly melts over the warm chili. Serve immediately and enjoy!
