Steps
Step 1
Set oven to 420F.
Step 2
Dice raw sweet potatoes into small pieces and spread them out on a baking sheet. Bake them in the oven for about 15 minutes.

While the sweet potatoes are baking, prepare the ground turkey and eggs. Set a (nonstick) skillet on medium-high heat and toss in turkey. Add garlic and Italian seasoning to the skillet and chop and stir. Once the meat is completely cooked and no longer pink (about 6-8 minutes), remove it from the heat.

In a large casserole dish (8×8) or individual baking tins, add the cooked ground turkey, sweet potato, zucchini, mushrooms and bell pepper. Finally, pour in the eggs and top with reduced fat cheddar.
