Ingredients
• 1 pound ground turkey
• 1 medium onion, chopped
• 1 shallot, finely chopped
• 3 garlic cloves, minced
• 1/4 cup tomato paste
• 1 medium sweet potato, peeled and cubed
• 1 cup chicken broth
• 2 teaspoons smoked paprika
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1/4 teaspoon pepper
• 3 cups chopped fresh kale
• Dash crushed red pepper flakes
• 1 medium ripe avocado, peeled and sliced
• Minced fresh mint, optional
Directions
1. In a large skillet, cook turkey, onion, shallot and garlic over medium heat until turkey is no longer pink and vegetables are tender, 8-10 minutes, breaking up turkey into crumbles; drain. Add tomato paste; cook and stir 1 minute longer.
2. Add sweet potato, broth, smoked paprika, salt and pepper. Bring to a boil; reduce heat. Simmer, covered, until sweet potato is tender, about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add kale and red pepper flakes; cook and stir until kale is wilted, about 2 minutes longer. Serve with avocado and, if desired, mint.
