Ingredients
Method
Cooking
- Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat until shimmering.
- Add the chopped onion and sauté until softened and fragrant, about 3-5 minutes.
- Add the minced garlic and stir for another 30 seconds, being careful not to burn it.
- Add the ground beef, breaking it apart with a spatula as it cooks, and let it brown evenly for about 5-7 minutes.
- Once the beef is mostly cooked through, season it with salt, pepper, paprika, and Italian seasoning.
- Stir in the diced sweet potatoes, cover the skillet, and let them cook for about 10-15 minutes until fork-tender.
- Add the diced zucchini and cook for an additional 5 minutes until the zucchini is tender but still has a bit of bite.
- Taste and adjust seasonings if needed, and sprinkle with red pepper flakes if desired.

Notes
Feel free to add more veggies like bell peppers or spinach. You can substitute ground beef with turkey or chicken for a leaner dish, or make it vegan with lentils or chickpeas. Store leftovers in the fridge for up to 4 days.
