1 onion finely diced
2-3cloves garlic crushed
4 – 5 swiss brown mushrooms finely diced
1 grated zucchini (squeeze to remove moisture)
2 tins chopped tomatoes
2 -3 tablespoons wostershire sauce (could replace with soy sauce)
1 teaspoon of ground cumin
1 teaspoon of ground cinnamon (seems weird to put this in, but it has many health benefits and you can’t taste it)
1-2 teaspoons tabasco sauce (depending how hot you like it)
Pink himalayan salt & cracked pepper

Ikg sweet potato
1 tablespoon skim milk
Pink himalayan salt & cracked pepper

Enough baby spinach to layer between mince & sweet potato

Method:
1) Cook onion and garlic until translucent. Add turkey mince and cook. Break the turkey mince up with a fork as you go.

2) Once mince is cooked add the mushrooms & grated zucchini and cook for 2-3 minutes until softened.

3) Add the tomatoes, sauces, spices and S&P then bring to boil. Lower heat and simmer uncovered for 30-40 mins until sauce has reduced (sauce should not be runny, reduce for longer if necessary).

4) Steam sweet potato, then mash.

5) Layer mince in baking dish, cover with baby spinach then sweet potato and bake for approx 1/2 hour until browned on top.

Serve with steamed broccoli.
