Artificial Flavors Free Whole30 Smoked Paprika Turkey and Sweet Potato Hash
Smoky, hearty, and built entirely from real, whole ingredients, this skillet hash is the kind of one-pan meal that makes weeknight cooking feel effortless. Every component — from the golden sweet potato cubes to the smoked paprika-dusted ground turkey — gets its flavor from spices and fresh produce alone, with zero synthetic additives or flavor enhancers in sight. That matters more than you might think, because so many store-bought spice blends and seasoning packets sneak in artificial flavoring agents that are easy to overlook on a label. Here, smoked paprika, cumin, garlic powder, and a touch of cayenne do all the heavy lifting, delivering deep, layered warmth that tastes anything but plain. The baby spinach wilts right into the hash, and the eggs cook directly in the skillet so the yolks stay just a little jammy — it's a complete, satisfying meal with barely any cleanup. Fresh scallion greens and parsley finish everything off with a bright, clean note that ties the whole dish together. Whether you're eating this for breakfast, lunch, or dinner, it's the kind of recipe that proves you don't need anything artificial to make food taste genuinely good.

4 servings
- 2 medium sweet potatoes (about 1 lb total), peeled and cut into ½-inch cubes
- 3 tbsp avocado oil, divided
- 1 lb ground turkey
- 1 medium red bell pepper, diced
- 3 scallions (green tops only), thinly sliced
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 tsp smoked paprika
- 1 tsp ground cumin
- ½ tsp garlic powder
- ¼ tsp cayenne pepper (optional)
- ¾ tsp salt, plus more to taste
- ¼ tsp black pepper
- 2 cups baby spinach, loosely packed
- 4 large eggs
For serving
- 2 tbsp fresh flat-leaf parsley, roughly chopped (optional)
Instructions
- 1
Heat 2 tbsp of the avocado oil in a 12-inch skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering. Add the sweet potato cubes in a single layer and cook, stirring only every 2–3 minutes, until golden on the outside and just tender when pierced with a fork, about 10–12 minutes. Transfer to a plate and set aside.
- 2
Reduce the heat to medium. Add the ground turkey to the same skillet and cook, breaking it into small pieces with a spatula, until no pink remains and an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest portion reads 165°F (74°C), about 6–7 minutes. Transfer the cooked turkey to the plate with the sweet potatoes.
