GROUND TURKEY SWEET POTATO CASSEROLE

This ground turkey sweet potato casserole is the perfect healthy dinner recipe! It is so easy, made with only 4 main ingredients, sweet potato, ground turkey, zucchini, parmesan cheese, and simple seasonings.

It’s a low effort, gluten free meal loaded with protein and veggies. I love to make this recipe x2 or x3 to freeze as it defrosts and reheats so well!
