15 Minute Turkey Sweet Potato Black Bean Skillet

There is something about the months of February and March. Every year when those months rolls around I get major cabin fever and start counting down the days until warm weather. One thing I struggle with is the motivation to cook up complicated recipes after a long, exhausting day. 15 Minute Turkey Sweet Potato Black Bean Skillet to the rescue!

I know that a lot of you are also looking for easy weeknight meals that you can put on the table for your family. Today’s 15 Minute Turkey Sweet Potato Black Bean Skillet is just that; simple to make, ready in under 15 minutes and filled with farm flavor. This meal is great on its own, over brown rice, quinoa or lettuce or as a filling for tacos or quesadillas. One of my favorite things about a recipe like this is how versatile it can be for your family’s needs. This recipe also makes great leftovers too, so you can use it for salads, or a burrito bowl for lunch.

When Alexia Foods asked me to create a recipe using one of their frozen sides I was excited to incorporate it into an easy weeknight meal. We really enjoy Alexia products in my house, whether it is the Sweet Potato Fries with Sea Salt or one of the vegetable blends. Sometimes I serve them as a side to our main meal and other times I incorporate them into a recipe. I love that Alexia’s products use simple, distinctive, real ingredients that are all-natural.
