Sweet Potato and Turkey One Pot Recipe

August 12, 2014 By Shannah Coe 1 Comment

School is back in session here and so we’ve added homework and a few other activities into our mix. Doing lots of dishes and making meals that require a lot of work are totally out of the picture. I am loving one pot meals more and more right now as we try to squeeze every extra moment of time outside in possible before the weather turns cold. I shared this sweet potato and turkey one pot recipe awhile back over at Mom 4 Real and I wanted to share it with you here too.

A delicious one pot meal with turkey, sweet potatoes and the freshness of lemon.

This recipe is super simple but is packed with flavor! A good friend of mine posted she was making something like it on her Facebook page one night and I was totally inspired to try it. I made a few slight changes to her recipe and it has become a family favorite. While it is easiest to use a wok for this recipe, a large saute pan totally works in a pinch.

I love the flavors in this recipe and they are even better the next day as lunch leftovers. I think you could easily play around with the spices in this too and maybe go for a more Indian flavor.
