I don’t know about you guys, but I am very excited for the holidays. This year I will be celebrating Christmas with my family in Brazil. Oh gosh, I can’t even describe with words how much happy I am, especially because it will be my first Christmas with my family since 2010.

Also, my family is getting bigger. My lovely sister is pregnant and the baby will probably due at the end of November. I’m so excited!!!! I’m gonna be an auntie. I am leaving today for Brazil because I just cannot miss this special moment in our lives. It is my first nephew and her first son who will be with us for Christmas. How wonderful is that?? I just can’t wait!! I am counting the hours until I get there.

Ingredients:

• 2 tbsp extra-virgin olive oil
• 1 lbs extra-lean ground turkey
• 1 tsp garlic clove, minced
• ½ cup onions, diced
• ½ cup yellow pepper, diced
• 1 ½ cups sweet potato, diced
• Salt and freshly ground black pepper
• A pinch of red chili flakes
• ½ cup shredded mozzarella cheese
• Fresh parsley for garnishing

Directions:

1. In an iron cast skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat.
2. Add ground turkey and garlic. Use a wood spoon breaking up the turkey while it cooks. Stir occasionally and cook for about 5 minutes.
3. Add onions and yellow peppers and cook until onions are soft.
4. Add the sweet potato, chili pepper, salt, and pepper.
5. Cover the skillet and cook until they are tender. Don’t forget to stir occasionally. If necessary, add more olive oil or a little bit of water to cook the sweet potato faster.
6. While the sweet potato is cooking, preheat the oven to 400 degrees.
7. When the sweet potato is tender, add shredded mozzarella cheese and bring the skillet to the oven to melt the cheese* (see note below).
8. When the cheese melts, remove from the oven, and garnish with parsley.
