Comfort Food - Who says this can't be nutritious and yummy at the same time!!!
Sweet Potato and Turkey Hash😋 Breakfast, lunch or supper....this one is good at any meal time!
😋 Dice 1 large or 3 small sweet potatos, add to large sauce pan, cover sweet potato with water and let simmer till potato is tender. Remove potato from sauce pan and set aside.
😋 Add olive oil to pan and sautee chopped onion for 2 minutes. Remove from the pan.
😋 Add turkey to pan and cook for 10 minutes - break it up as it cooks. - add small amounts of water as needed if turkey starts to stick. Once turkey is cooked add tomato paste and spices and a little water to let simmer for another 5-10 minutes on low heat.
Option - you can add in the diced sweet potato back into the turkey mixture or evenly divide the sweet pototo and turkey mixture into your meal prep bowls - that way you know you are getting equal serving of protein and carb per serving.
😋 Garnish with green onion.
😋 This recipe is for 3 servings - 311 Calories per serving, 16 grams of fat, 13 grams of carbs and 30 GRAMS OF PROTEIN!!!!!! Approximate size per serving of meat mixture is 3/4 cup and the sweet potato 1/2 cup.

Food for thought - eating enough protein at each meal throughout your day helps with satiety, blood glucose levels and efficient protein absorption rather than trying to crush your protein intake with a bunch of protein powders or bars that may be loaded with additives and preservatives that upset the gut microbiome. 😜😜

🧇Turned this pancake recipe into a waffle recipe......
Recipe as follows for 3 waffles:
1 cup of oat flour, 3 scoops of protein powder(Vegan/Whole Foods works best), 1 tsp baking powder, 1 TBSP ground flax seed, 1/8 tsp of sea salt. Mix all dry ingredients together.
Mash 1 medium size banana...set to the side.
Add 1 cup of unsweetened almond milk to dry ingredients, then stir in the mashed banana. If batter is too runny for waffles then let sit for 5-10 minutes. The oats will soak up some of the milk.
Turn on waffle iron, spray with cooking spray. Scoop approx 1/2 cup of batter onto waffle iron - cook waffles on LOW heat.
Don't open waffle iron till "ready" light turns green on your waffle iron. If waffle seperates, close lid and cook a little. longer.
Once all waffles are cooked, let cool, seperate each waffle with parchment paper and refridgerate or freeze. When ready to eat pop into the toaster or microwave. These are delicious on their own or add whatever you like to have with your waffle!😋
🧇 I use MRE lite protein powder or Beyond Yourself Vegan protein powder.
🧇 This recipe is gluten free if you use gluten free oat flour - i just grind my oats in a little food processor.
Calorie/Macro Breakdown - 1 serving is 1 waffle:
Calories - 347, Fat - 6 grams, Carbs - 43 grams and Protein - 31 grams!!!
There may even be a little left in the bowl to lick the spatula!🧇😋
