Prep Time15 minsCook Time55 minsTotal Time1 hr 10 mins

2 tbsp olive oil

1 onion, diced

6 garlic cloves, minced

1 large sweet potato, peeled and diced

2 organic bell peppers, diced

4 medium carrots, diced

1 ½ lbs ground turkey

½ tsp paprika

1 tsp cumin

½ tsp garlic powder

2 tbsp chili powder OR seasoning of choice (I used FreshJax Grill Master!)

28 oz organic diced tomatoes, undrained

2 cups broth or water (veggie broth, turkey broth, or bone broth)

salt, to taste

Heat olive oil in a large Dutch oven or large pot on medium heat.
Add onions & carrots with a pinch of salt and saute for a few minutes.
Add garlic and saute for 30 seconds.
Add sweet potatoes & peppers with a pinch of salt and cook for 5-8 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Add spices & seasonings, stir, and cook for 1-2 more minutes.

At this point, you may need to remove some of the veggies from the pot in order to brown the turkey (I removed about half of the veggies.)
Add turkey and brown until mostly cooked (do not overcook or it will get tough.)
Return veggies to the pot.
Add diced tomatoes & juices.
Then add enough broth or water to cover. Bring to a gentle boil, cover, and simmer for 40-45 minutes, stirring occasionally, until tender.
Add salt to taste.

Enjoy immediately OR cool and refrigerate for 3-4 days. (It has an even better flavor the next day!!)
I froze half of this in Mason jars to enjoy after Baby Boy #2 arrives!
