  • 1/2 cup peas
  • 1 cup diced carrots
  • 1 small potato, peeled and diced
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1/2 cup low-sodium chicken broth

  1. Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. In a skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat and add the ground turkey, cooking until browned.
  3. Add the diced carrots and peas to the skillet and stir for 3-4 minutes.
  4. Mix in the diced potato and chicken broth, then transfer everything to a baking dish.
