Number of Servings:

Ingredients:

  1. 1 pounds - lean ground meat (beef or turkey)
  2. 2 - medium carrots peeled, chopped
  3. 1/2 - green pepper chopped
  4. 1 - small onion chopped
  5. 2 cloves - garlic minced
  6. 1/2 teaspoons - dried rosemary
  7. 3/4 teaspoons - chili powder
  8. 1/4 teaspoons - sea salt or to taste
  9. 1/4 tablespoons - black pepper
  10. 3 ounces - tomato paste (about 6 Tbsp)
  11. 1 tablespoons - flaxseed meal plus 2 Tbsp. water optional (or substitute 1 egg white)
  12. 2 - medium sweet potatoes peeled, cubed
  13. 1 tablespoons - coconut oil, butter OR avocado oil
  14. 1/2 teaspoons - chili powder
  15. 1/4 teaspoons - sea salt

Directions:

Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.

Combine the flaxseed and water and set aside, making a flax gel.

For the topping: Steam or bake (at 375 degrees) the sweet potatoes until fork tender, about 20 minutes. Then add all the toppings ingredients to a food processor (or blender) and process until smooth.

Meanwhile, in a skillet on medium heat begin to brown your meat.

Once meat is partially browned, add chopped carrots, onions, peppers and minced garlic.

Cook on medium heat until carrots are soft, about 10 minutes.

Once the carrots are soft, stir in tomato paste, flax gel (flaxseed and water), seasonings, salt and pepper.

Final step: transfer the meat filling to a casserole dish (9x9 inch) and top with the Sweet Potato Mash.

Bake for 15 minutes, remove from oven and serve.
