Instructions

1

Preheat your oven to 400 deg F (200 deg C). Pierce the sweet potato several times with a fork and roast on a baking sheet until tender and caramelized, about 45-50 minutes.

2

While the potato roasts, heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add the ground turkey and green bell pepper. Sauté, breaking up the meat with a wooden spoon, until the turkey is browned and cooked through, about 8-10 minutes. Fold in the fresh spinach and cook until just wilted. Season generously with smoked paprika, salt, and cracked black pepper.

3

Once the sweet potato is done, slice it lengthwise and fluff the insides with a fork. Pile the savory turkey and spinach mixture generously into the hollowed potato. Top with the toasted slivered almonds for a necessary crunch. Serve immediately while steaming hot.
