Ingredients

  • 1 lb ground turkey lean
  • 2 sweet potatoes cut in 1" cubes
  • lb brussels sprouts cut into quarters
  • 4 tbsp olive oil extra virgin, divided
  • salt + pepper to taste
  • 1 tsp maple syrup optional

Turkey Chorizo Seasoning

  • 1 tbsp white vinegar
  • 2 tsp chili powder
  • 2 tsp paprika
  • 2 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp cumin
  • 1 tsp coriander
  • 1 tsp oregano
  • ½ tsp salt
  • ½ tsp cayenne pepper

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Chop your sweet potatoes into 1-inch cubes and slice off the end piece and any wilted leaves of each brussels sprout. Slice each brussels sprouts in half lengthwise then again to make quarters.
  • Place your chopped sweet potatoes and brussels sprouts into a 13x9" baking pan. Drizzle with 2 tbsp olive oil and salt and pepper to taste. Roast in the preheated oven for 35 minutes or until fork tender.
  • In a large bowl, combine ground turkey all of the turkey chorizo seasoning spices and white vinegar. Mix using your hands or a large spoon until the spices are evenly distributed.
  • Heat 2 tbsp of olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add your turkey mixture to the pan. Use a silicone meat masher or wooden spoon to break the turkey apart into smaller pieces as it starts to cook and turn golden brown. Once cooked through, remove from heat and set aside.
  • Once vegetables are roasted and fork tender, remove them from the oven. Mix the cooked turkey chorizo into the baking pan with the vegetables. Drizzle with maple syrup if desired and place bake into the oven for a few minutes to allow the flavors to combine.
  • Serve as is or add your favorite toppings such as a fried egg, sliced avocado, jalapeño peppers, colby jack cheese, or fresh cilantro.

Substitute ground chicken, ground beef, or black beans for the ground turkey. 
Use pre-shredded brussels sprouts to speed up the prep process.
Swap butternut squash or white potatoes for the sweet potatoes.
Add more veggies by adding chopped onion and bell peppers.
