SWEET POTATO SKILLET

Ingredients

• 2 Tbsp olive oil
• 2 large or 3 medium sweet potatoes, peeled and cut into 1″ cubes
• 1 red bell pepper, seeded and diced
• 2 Tbsp minced onion (or 1/2 cup chopped onion)
• 1 tsp garlic powder
• 1 tsp ground ginger
• Salt and pepper, to taste 
• 5 chicken sausage links (12-16 oz.) 

Instructions 

• Add the olive oil to a large skillet. Saute the sweet potato cubes for 5 to 7 minutes, adding water if needed to help them ‘steam’ and from sticking to the bottom. Stir often.

• Add the diced green and red bell peppers, minced onion, garlic powder, ground ginger and salt and pepper. Stir in and saute for another 5 minutes, or until peppers have softened.

• Add in the chicken sausage and let it warm up. I use is pre-cooked, so we are just warming them. If you are using raw sausage, make sure it has time to cook through, or cook them in a separate skillet before mixing all together.)

• Let saute together for a few minutes, or until the sweet potatoes are all softened. Remove from heat and serve warm.
