Sweet Potato and Spinach Skillet
This is a perfect mix of healthy veggies and lean protein plus a little cheese…okay maybe a lot. So easy to make and a great meal to make for meal plans.
Ingredients
2 Tablespoons olive oil
1/2 onion, diced
2 sweet potatoes, peeled and chopped
1 lb ground chicken
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon onion powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
1 bag (16 ounce) spinach
1 cup Mozzarella cheese, shredded
Instructions
- Drizzle olive oil in a large cast iron or skillet over medium high heat. Once hot, add the chopped onion and sweet potatoes.
- Cook for about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally until sweet potatoes are slightly soft.
- Add the ground chicken, onion powder, garlic powder, salt and pepper, break up and cook until cooked all the way through.
- Once cooked, add the spinach leaves and drizzle with more olive oil, salt and pepper. Mix all together. Cook for another 3-4 minutes until spinach is soft. Remove from heat and sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese over the top. Serve warm.
Notes
– If keeping for meal prep, store in air tight containers in the fridge for up to 4 days. To reheat, use a skillet on the stove or in the microwave in minute intervals.
