Yeast Free Whole30 Smoked Paprika Turkey and Sweet Potato Hash
Smoky, hearty, and packed with color, this skillet hash is the kind of one-pan meal that makes weeknight cooking feel genuinely exciting. Sweet potato cubes get golden and caramelized in avocado oil before joining seasoned ground turkey, red bell pepper, and wilted baby spinach in a fragrant blend of smoked paprika, cumin, and garlic. The whole thing comes together in a single skillet, which means less cleanup and more time actually enjoying dinner. Eggs are nestled right into the hash at the end and cooked until the whites are just set — it's a satisfying finish that makes this feel like a complete, nourishing meal without any extra effort. For anyone navigating a yeast-free lifestyle, this recipe is a natural fit because every ingredient is whole and unprocessed — no bread, no vinegar-based condiments, no fermented anything hiding in the spice blend. The seasoning is built entirely from dried spices and fresh aromatics, so you get bold, layered flavor without relying on anything that could sneak yeast derivatives into the mix. It's the kind of dish that proves eating within restrictions doesn't have to mean eating boringly. Serve it straight from the skillet with a scatter of fresh parsley and watch it disappear fast.

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

- ¼ tsp black pepper
- 2 cups baby spinach, loosely packed

- 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.
