Potatoes N Turkey



Spring peas, ground turkey, cumin, cilantro and potatoes come together to create this quick comforting weeknight dish.

I'll be honest, I'm not the most organized person when it comes to meal planning; I shop without a list and don't always have a plan for what I buy. I'm pretty good at winging it and I love when my creations are successful. We served this over rice and they portions were extremely generous. A huge hit with everyone in my house ranging from ages one to adult.
