Prep Time:
10 minutes

Cook Time:
15 minutes

Ready In:
25 minutes

Ingredients:

  • 2 medium sweet potatoes (peeled and diced)
  • 1 apple (peeled, cored, and diced)
  • 2 tablespoon(s) coconut oil (divided)
  • 1/4 teaspoon(s) cinnamon ((optional))
  • 2 mild Italian chicken sausages (removed from casing)
  • 3 large cups of spinach
  • 1/3 cup(s) sweet yellow onion (diced)
  • salt and pepper (to taste)

Instructions:

In a large nonstick skillet heat 1 tablespoon coconut oil over medium-high heat.  Once heated, add diced sweet potatoes and apples.  Add a pinch or two of sea salt and cinnamon to the pan.  Cook sweet potatoes and apples until cooked and softened.  I prefer my sweet potatoes to be slightly browned.

While the sweet potatoes are cooking, heat a large skillet with 1 tablespoon coconut oil over medium heat.  Add to skillet the chicken (or pork) sausage and onion making sure to break the sausage up in small pieces while it cooks.  Once the chicken is no longer pink in color and completely cooked add spinach to the skillet.  Don’t worry the spinach will wilt down when cooked.  The spinach should wilt down within 1 to 2 minutes.  Once spinach is cooked add the sweet potato apple mixture to pan and stir to combine all.

Serve warm and with a side of choice.  Serve with a side of fresh raspberries.
