Savory Turkey & Vegetable Bake
Ingredients
1 tbsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1 lb Extra Lean Ground Turkey
1 Yellow Onion (finely chopped)
2 Garlic (clove, minced)
1 tbsp Italian Seasoning
1 tsp Sea Salt
2 cups Kale Leaves (chopped)
2 cups Butternut Squash (chopped into 1 cm cubes)
3/4 cup Canned Coconut Milk (full fat)
Directions
Preheat the oven to 400ºF (204ºC).
Heat the oil in a large pan over medium-high heat. Add the turkey to the pan, breaking it up with a wooden spoon as it cooks. Once it is cooked through and no longer pink, drain any excess drippings from the pan.
Add the onions and garlic to the turkey and cook for 3 to 5 minutes until the onions soften. Add the Italian seasonings and sea salt and stir to combine. Add the kale and butternut squash to the pan and cook until the kale wilts down then stir in the coconut milk. Season with additional salt if needed.
Transfer the turkey and vegetable mixture to a baking dish. Cover with a lid or foil and bake for 20 to 25 minutes or until the squash is tender.
Divide between plates and enjoy!
