Ingredients
  

1 pound ground turkey

2 medium sweet potatoes, peeled and diced into 1/2-inch cubes

1 red bell pepper, diced

1 green bell pepper, diced

1 small onion, diced

3 cloves garlic, minced

1 teaspoon smoked paprika

1 teaspoon ground cumin

½ teaspoon salt (adjust to taste)

¼ teaspoon black pepper (adjust to taste)

2 tablespoons olive oil

1 cup fresh spinach, roughly chopped

2 large eggs (optional, for serving)

Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Hot sauce (optional, for serving)

Instructions
 

Prepare the Ingredients: Start by peeling the sweet potatoes and cutting them into 1/2-inch cubes. Dice the red and green bell peppers as well as the onion. Mince the garlic and roughly chop the spinach. Set all prepared ingredients aside to streamline the cooking process.

    Cook the Turkey: In a large skillet over medium heat, pour in 2 tablespoons of olive oil. Once the oil is shimmering, add the ground turkey, breaking it apart with a spatula. Cook for about 5-7 minutes, or until the turkey is browned and no longer pink. Season with salt and black pepper to taste. Once cooked, transfer the turkey to a plate and cover it to keep warm.

      Sauté Vegetables: In the same skillet, add a splash more olive oil if necessary. Add the diced sweet potatoes, cooking them for about 10-12 minutes. Stir occasionally until the sweet potatoes start to soften and develop a golden color. If they begin to stick, add a splash of water to create steam for cooking.

        Add Onions and Peppers: Incorporate the diced onion and both bell peppers into the skillet. Cook for an additional 5-7 minutes until the vegetables are softened. Stir in the minced garlic, smoked paprika, and cumin, then cook for another minute until fragrant and mixed well.

          Combine Turkey and Spinach: Return the cooked turkey to the skillet, integrating it with the sautéed vegetables. Fold in the chopped spinach and stir until it wilts, approximately 2 minutes. Taste and adjust seasoning with additional salt and pepper if desired.

            Optional Eggs: For a richer dish, make small wells in the hash and crack an egg into each well, if using. Cover the skillet with a lid and cook for roughly 5 minutes, or until the egg whites are firm and the yolks are still runny (or longer if a firmer yolk is preferred).

              Serve: Garnish the hash with freshly chopped parsley. Serve immediately, optionally drizzling with hot sauce for an extra kick.
