Ingredients

  • 4 large sweet potatoes
  • 1/2 red onion, chopped
  • 1 shredded carrot (about 1/2 cup)
  • 1 tsp. garlic powder
  • 1 tbsp. chili powder
  • 1/2 tsp. cinnamon
  • 1 lb. extra-lean ground turkey

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Pierce potatoes all over with a fork and place on an aluminum foil-lined baking sheet; bake until tender, about 50 minutes.
