🍠Ground Beef and Sweet Potato Medley 🍠
-Heat 1 Tbs. olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
-Add 2 large, peeled and diced sweet potatoes and cook for about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they soften and brown.
-Remove the potatoes from the skillet and set aside.
-In the same skillet, cook 1 lb. ground beef until browned, about 8-10 minutes. Drain any excess fat if necessary.
-Add 1 diced red bell pepper, 1 small diced yellow onion, and 2 cloves minced garlic to the skillet. (See additional options below) Cook for another 5 minutes until the vegetables are tender.
-Return the cooked sweet potatoes to the skillet. Add 1 tsp paprika, 1 tsp ground cumin, 1 tsp chili powder, 1 tsp dried basil, ¾ tsp salt and ½ tsp pepper.
-Stir and cook for 5 more minutes, allowing the flavors to come together.
OPTIONAL:
-Add 8-16 oz shredded mozzarella cheese and stir. We love this!
-Make it your own by adding additional veggies you like while cooking the peppers.
We suggest 1 zucchini sliced into half-moons, 1 yellow squash sliced into half-moons, 1 cup sliced baby carrots, or 2 stalks chopped celery …..or all of them!
-Eat it as-is, or pair it with gluten-free pasta or grain-free nacho chips (We like the Siete brand)
