Yield: ~4 servings (easily double for meal prep)

Ingredients

Cooking fats & protein

  • 2 tbsp coconut oil or avocado oil
  • 1 lb ground meat (turkey, chicken, beef, or pork) or nitrate-free sausage (casings removed and crumbled or sliced coin-size)

Vegetables & fruit

  • 2 medium sweet potatoes, chopped  
  • ⅓ cup chopped onion or green onion (optional but recommended)
  • 1½ cups mixed vegetables (choose any combination):
    • Brussels sprouts (halved or quartered)
    • Broccoli florets
    • Cauliflower florets
    • Asparagus, cut into 1” pieces (thicker pieces hold up better)
  • 1 apple, chopped
  • 1–2 cups spinach or baby kale

Seasonings

  • 1 tsp dried rosemary
  • 1 tsp dried sage
  • Dash of cinnamon
  • 1 tsp sea salt (plus more to taste)

Instructions

  1. Cook protein
     Heat 1 tbsp oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add meat and cook until fully browned. Season lightly with salt and a portion of herbs. Remove and set aside.
  2. Sauté base vegetables
     Add remaining 1 tbsp oil (and a bit of rendered fat if desired). Add sweet potatoes and onion. Cook ~5 minutes. Add mixed vegetables and sauté 8–12 minutes until tender-crisp.
  3. Add apple + greens
     Stir in apple and spinach/kale. Cook 3–4 minutes until softened and wilted.
  4. Finish
     Return meat to the skillet. Add remaining herbs, salt, and cinnamon. Stir well and adjust seasoning.

Kitchen Notes
