• 1 lb ground turkey

• guacamole (I used a premade one from HEB)

• pico de gallo (I used a premade one from HEB)

INSTRUCTIONS:

1. Preheat your oven to 375 degrees.
2. Peel then slice the sweet potatoes. (I cut the potatoes in half to make it easier, then slice like “fries”)
3. Place the sweet potatoes into a large bowl.
4. Sprinkle a little olive oil over top, add salt and pepper, to taste, then mix together.
5. Pour the sweet potatoes onto a baking sheet covered in foil, and bake in the oven for 25-30 minutes.
6. Place the ground turkey, jalapeno, shallot, garlic, cilantro, paprika, cumin, salt and pepper into a bowl. Cut the lime in half and squeeze 1/2 of the limes into the bowl.
7. Use your hands to mix everything together
8. Form into four patties.
9. Place a pan on the stove on medium heat, and add a little olive oil.
10. Once the pan is hot, cook the patties for about 5 minutes each side or until cooked through.
11. Top with guacamole and pico de gallo
